I don't know if mine is the same issue but let me chip in and see...
Typically KDE will not log me out after an update to KDE has been
installed (yum update). I get the log out popup, confirm, windows start
eventually closing but KDE will not "quit". What I observe is about 1MB/s
I/O operations on the drive -- kmix doing something silly (figured it out
with iotop) and doesn't want to give up (I let it run for some 15 minutes
to see if it eventually quits...). 'kill -9 kmix' and KDE happily
completes logout. This does not happen if there was no update to KDE
components. I've seen this happen 4 times by now.
I don't want to hijack a thread here so I added "[kmix?]" to the subject
in
case it's something different. Is it just me?
Possibly not the same - I haven't seen anything like that.
