With all the bandwidth used by other application, kded gets blocked waiting for a web favicon. Result, in my case: konsole blocked. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start to download a very big file with firefox, to use all your bandwith 2.while the download is going on, in konsole, select text until it is blocked. 3. Actual Results: It is blocked in KMimeType::favIconForUrl (url=...) (kmimetype.cpp:498) forever. Expected Results: Shouldn't favIconForUrl respect the KDE settings for network timeout? Shouldn't favIconForUrl have a cache? where konsole gets blocked: #5 0x00007f6f86847fdc in dbus_connection_send_with_reply_and_block () from /lib64/libdbus-1.so.3 #6 0x00007f6f982c439f in q_dbus_connection_send_with_reply_and_block (error=0x7fffb2d73b20, timeout_milliseconds=-1, message=0x7f6f90839880, connection=0x7f6f90891dc0) at /g/kdegit/qt/src/dbus/qdbus_symbols_p.h:135 #7 QDBusConnectionPrivate::sendWithReply (this=0x7f6f9088f500, message=..., sendMode=<optimized out>, timeout=-1) at /g/kdegit/qt/src/dbus/qdbusintegrator.cpp:1902 #8 0x00007f6f982afff3 in QDBusConnection::call (this=0x7f6f7a638ec8, message=..., mode=<optimized out>, timeout=<optimized out>) at /g/kdegit/qt/src/dbus/qdbusconnection.cpp:597 #9 0x00007f6f982d2f56 in QDBusAbstractInterface::callWithArgumentList (this=this@entry=0x7fffb2d73ee0, mode=QDBus::Block, mode@entry= QDBus::AutoDetect, method=..., args=...) at /g/kdegit/qt/src/dbus/qdbusabstractinterface.cpp:468 #10 0x00007f6f982d458e in QDBusAbstractInterface::call (this=0x7fffb2d73ee0, mode=mode@entry=QDBus::AutoDetect, method=..., arg1=..., arg2=..., arg3= ..., arg4=..., arg5=..., arg6=..., arg7=..., arg8=...) at /g/kdegit/qt/src/dbus/qdbusabstractinterface.cpp:724 #11 0x00007f6f982d4d11 in QDBusAbstractInterface::call (this=<optimized out>, method=..., arg1=..., arg2=..., arg3=..., arg4=..., arg5=..., arg6=..., arg7=..., arg8=...) at /g/kdegit/qt/src/dbus/qdbusabstractinterface.cpp:667 #12 0x00007f6f9868b5bb in KMimeType::favIconForUrl (url=...) at /g/kdegit/kdelibs/kdecore/services/kmimetype.cpp:498 #13 0x00007f6f904718dd in lookupIconNameFor (url=..., type=KUriFilterData::NetProtocol) at /g/kdegit/kdelibs/kio/kio/kurifilter.cpp:47 #14 0x00007f6f90471bae in KUriFilterPlugin::iconNameFor (this=<optimized out>, url=..., type=<optimized out>) at /g/kdegit/kdelibs/kio/kio/kurifilter.cpp:569 #15 0x00007f6f7aa1ec10 in KAutoWebSearch::populateProvidersList (this=this@entry=0x7f6f7d4ab320, searchProviders=..., data=..., allproviders=allproviders@entry=false) at /g/kdegit/kde-runtime/kurifilter-plugins/ikws/kuriikwsfilter.cpp:104 #16 0x00007f6f7aa1ed4f in KAutoWebSearch::filterUri (this=0x7f6f7d4ab320, data=...) at /g/kdegit/kde-runtime/kurifilter-plugins/ikws/kuriikwsfilter.cpp:119 #17 0x00007f6f90471e7a in KUriFilter::filterUri (this=this@entry=0x7f6f7c1432a0, data=..., filters=...) at /g/kdegit/kdelibs/kio/kio/kurifilter.cpp:629 #18 0x00007f6f90471f77 in KUriFilter::filterSearchUri (this=0x7f6f7c1432a0, data=..., types=...) at /g/kdegit/kdelibs/kio/kio/kurifilter.cpp:684 #19 0x00007f6f8414d357 in Konsole::SessionController::updateWebSearchMenu (this=this@entry=0x7f6f7d482900) at /g/kdegit/konsole/src/SessionController.cpp:394 #20 0x00007f6f8414d6f1 in Konsole::SessionController::selectionChanged (this=this@entry=0x7f6f7d482900, selectedText=...) at /g/kdegit/konsole/src/SessionController.cpp:365 #21 0x00007f6f841520dc in Konsole::SessionController::qt_static_metacall (_o=0x7f6f7d482900, _c=<optimized out>, _id=5, _a=<optimized out>) at /g/b45/konsole/src/SessionController.moc:154 #22 0x00007f6f97f3d3bf in QMetaObject::activate (sender=0x7f6f90a43000, m=<optimized out>, local_signal_index=<optimized out>, argv=0x7fffb2d745b0) at /g/kdegit/qt/src/corelib/kernel/qobject.cpp:3539 #23 0x00007f6f84144445 in Konsole::Session::selectionChanged (this=this@entry=0x7f6f90a43000, _t1=...) at /g/b45/konsole/src/Session.moc:420 #24 0x00007f6f84146e83 in Konsole::Session::qt_static_metacall (_o=0x7f6f90a43000, _c=<optimized out>, _id=15, _a=<optimized out>) at /g/b45/konsole/src/Session.moc:181
Can you please check which kded module is responsible for blocking calls to the dbus system? Likely candidates are the package update (e.g. muon, see bug 307049) or network status modules (see bug 268038). For more information, see http://kdepepo.wordpress.com/2011/05/11/troubleshooting-kded4-bugs/
Also see bug 306338. Finally someone finds a way to reproduce the freeze.
The problem has reproduced here again, not as I expected, but in any case: I know the (or one of the) kded4 module that freezes all.

I got this today too, I wasn't downloading anything but I was trying to restart munin and copying the error output
*** Bug 310244 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The dbus call blocking is another issue, but the cause (updating the web search menu) when selection changes is rather curious. I do not see why the search menu which is only shown when the context menu is displayed needs to be updated everytime the user changes the current selection ; especially since "updateWebSearchMenu" is already called right before the context menu is displayed. Removing the updateWebSearchMenu call from selectionChanged in Konsole should resolve this issue, but it won't resolve the problem it exposed, i.e. what is causing dbus to block indefinitely.
