Re: in KDE, starting totem forces gnome libs

Hello,

On Debian Testing and KDE desktop, if I click on a movie link on a
webpage, the video opens in Totem, the defualt application. Once that
happens, it appears that Totem is forcing Gnome libs to the desktop (or
the environment) and Firefox, pidgin, thunderbird, and perhaps other
applications if they are open, all change their appearance as if they
were running in Gnome. The screensaver also changes similarly. I have to
log out and log back in get things back to normal in KDE.

Is something the matter with Totem, Firefox or KDE?

thanks,
->HS

Had similar problem with a different desktop,  needing a restart of X to clear. Might be connected with gnome-settings-daemon which starts up here when totem starts.  Gnome apps seem to like to taking over your desktop.
