Hi, I wonder if anyone has seen this problem and knows how to solve it. After a reboot, my KDE desktop shows no icons and a pop-up window shows the message:
Error - KDesktop The process for the file protocol died unexpectedly If I end the session and log in again, the icons appear. I'm running KDE 3.4.2 on an up-to-date debian sid machine (kernel 2.6.12-1-686). I use kdm and configured it to auto-login with my userid. I didn't know what was the "file protocol" (from the error msg) and googled for: kdesktop "file protocol" kde "no icons" but didn't hit anything that seemed relevant to this problem. The full error msg had no google hits at all. I disabled auto-login, rebooted the machine, logged in manually, but hit exactly the same problem. The impression I have is that whatever process sets up the icons on the desktop requires a process which is only started later, so that, when I end the session and log in again, it's then there, available. I wasn't sure if I should post this on the kde list. I'll accept any suggestions.
