I'm currently running kde 4.2.4 and I haven't experienced the issues
you mentioned, have you tried start from an empty configuration
(removing $HOME/.kde4/)?

A quick search of the web brought up that this was “a minor regression in kdelibs“ and should be fixed by now (sorry, I don’t remember the actual site I read this on). So my question is: Is anyone experiencing the same problem and has a fix? Or do we really just need to wait for an update of KDE? If so: Is an update planned or do we have to wait for 4.3 or 4.2.5?

Check your installation.” If I click on “OK” or kill the message window X restarts. A web search on this one revealed nothing really helpful so now I’m just leaving the message window open on an unused desktop. When doing this everything seems to work normal and as expected. In fact “ps -elf | grep ksmserver” reveals that the specified program is indeed running. Does anyone get this error, too, and perhaps knows how to fix it?
