Hello,

Ever since the upgrade to KDE 4.7 several weeks ago, a lot of programs seem to hang in the Task Manager after I close them. They will remain for a long time or until I open another application. I also have an occasional application crash when I shutdown. Unfortunately, the crash message tells me nothing of what program is crashing and I'm not sure if it's related.

My question for everyone is regarding the programs hanging around since it's a regular thing and is most likely the cause of the latter. Is this a common thing or do I have some conflict somewhere, or a service that isn't happy?

I run pacman -Suy almost daily and use Firefox, Thunderbird, Kopete, Yakuake, VirtualBox, Terminal, Kwrite, and BOINC on a regular bases. I put my system to sleep nightly and shutdown at the end of the week. DAEMONS=(syslog-ng dbus network !netfs crond alsa @cupsd @boinc @samba).

I hope that's enough info.

Thank you

What you mean under "Task Manager" ? The thing is i have similar problem

after update to KDE 4.7 - some programs exist in task panel some time, after I closed them. For example after i closing firefox i can see it's shortcut in task panel.

I am referring to the same thing. The Task panel is named Task Manager. After I close an application, the space it would take on the panel remains and the icon changes to the X no icon image (I think it's the xorg icon/logo). After this happens, the only way to get rid of it is to open and close another application or to wait a long time. Do you think Desktop Search, Nepomnk or akonadi would have anything to do with this? I had them disabled for a long time then enabled them after the 4.7 update since I was constantly being nagged about them being disabled. Would rather not have them at all in my opinion. -- Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why its called the present.

I don't think it's search systems behaviour, i had disabled them about a

year ago(when system was installed) and never used them. I was under impression that i'm just the only one lucky with this issue, now it seems that it's a bug which became visible after update.

I'm glad I'm not the only one with the problem. Do you suspect anything in particular, or does it feel like a KDE bug?

I've disabled them without any troubles so far [1] [2] , bear in mind though they'll automatically start if you open kmail etc and are needed by some things to work properly [3] [1] http://henryhermawan.blogspot.com/2011/08/disable-nepomuk-and-akonadi.html [2] http://ubuntuku.org/16/how-to-disable-nepomuk-akonadi/ [3] http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=154&t=88771#p162713 Simon

Found out that the the program that is crashing when I log out is plasma-desktop. Not sure if it's related or not.
