debian-ppc specific error?
I'm currently using kopete 0.11.3 with KDE 3.4 as an IM.
After a while doin' .... something I guess, can't reproduce this at a whim;
kopete hangs and funny things start happening. I got to mention that kopete
does not have to be opened. It can be minimized into the dock.
* keyboard hangs, ie all together nonfunctional with cap and num light non
responsive.
* mouse can be moved as usual, but leaves me with only one option; moving
windows. every button only moves the current window. No minimize maximize
close no nothing so to speak.
I can at any point use ssh and kill the kopete process witch will fix the
problem.
After having this problem at least once every 48~ hours, I've begyn tinkering
a bit with the status I found out that ( I only got a BT mouse with scroll):
KDE has this inbuild resource witch will ask to terminate if a program doesn't
respond to the X (close) in the widget corner.
I found a method to be able to use the mouse, push down the scrollwheel and
scroll while down THEN the left mouse button suddenly get a correct response
from X. I push the X and repeats this mouse gesture with KDE's terminate
button when it appears.
I guess its kopete that has the fault. BUT why does the mouse respond like
that. Good for me, without the mouse I would have to hard reboot whenever
this occurs.
I use a PB17 5,7. Debian testing. The only button responsive is the
powerbutton.
