I just figured out what was causing mine. Mine was caused by an environment variable I set long ago, that got cleared by my update. And then I found this: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=500927 (edit: Oh ... I just realized this came full circle because you posted about the mandriva bug earlier.) to see if this is whats causing it for you, can you check the environment variables when it starts happening next ( the output of command printenv ) ? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
