Description Carlo Buratto 2008-07-31 00:39:05 UTC 
Version:           3.1.0 (using KDE 4.1.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

When i quit kate from ctrl+q, file\exit or exit button of the toolbar, kate quit normally.
When i close kate using the button close of the window, the kate's window close, but the process figure to be still active, not zombie and it still occupies memory.
When i start another kate, the previous process don't close yet, so if i close also the last from the window manager, the window closes but i will have two kate still in memory.
A "kill" with SIGQUIT, SIGHUP, SIGTERM to kate closes the processes remained in memory.
I tried with and without plugins, but it shows the same behaviour.

Version 3.1.0 Using KDE 4.1.00 (KDE 4.1.0) (KDEmod) in ArchLinux i686:
I can confirm this bug

I don't see this with kate and kwin/kde3 here. Which windowmanager are you using?
Comment 3 Matthew Woehlke 2008-07-31 17:42:44 UTC 
I had this problem with *all* KDE apps about a week back, but it's fixed now. I wonder if the fix didn't get backported? (I'm using kwin, desktop effects disabled.)

Carlo/Darío: Does it happen with other KDE apps also?
