Package: konqueror
Version: 4:3.1.3-1
Severity: normal
I run wmaker and use the session support by wmaker to restore the
windows when X is started with startx.
Konqueror-windows are opened fine, but sometimes I get for every
window the error message (a button):
Could not start process Can't talk to klauncher
If you want I can provide a screenshot of this.
I tried manually starting klauncher with
klauncher &
but this does not help (nor do I see a process klauncher running
afterwards).
The same error appears when pressing the "Home" button, and local file
directory browsing is impossible; the file open dialog is also
unusuable.
This also happend with konqueror under woody, but was not reported.
I am not sure how to properly debug this to report the error more
precicesly. Please tell me what to look for/at when this happenes next
time, to provide you with the necessary details.
My *impression* (!!) is, that it is related to system load. If only
one konqueror window is to be openend, the error is a lot less likly
to occur; also usually the system has some load when X is started
directly after boot (e.g. checksecurity), so it takes a while for the
konqueror windows to appear (much later than e.g. the xterms). But I
might be wrong on that guess.
It would be great if at least a possibility existed, to (re)start
klauncher manually instead of having unusuable konqueror windows.
Even better would be, if all windows could be opend at once (with the
proper location on the screen and maybe even the proper directories).
But I know KDE has decided against this route.
