Description Carlos Estensser 2012-02-21 11:15:25 UTC 
Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.8.0) 
OS:                Linux

When I try to open any external disk from the device notifier, it launches one instance of konqueror after another until I unmount the disk. The same happens when I try to open a torrent folder from within ktorrent.
In this last case my system freezes completely.

In the case of the device notifier, I replaced 
"kioclient exec %f"
with 
"kfmclient openProfile filemanagement %f"
in
/usr/share/kde4/apps/solid/actiones/test-predicate-openinwindow  
but that's obviously not enough.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Insert an external disk and open dolphin/konqueror from the device notifier

Actual Results:  
Infinite instances of the preferred file manager open.

Expected Results:  
Only one window should be opened

Cannot reporduce. I was going to say this issue is probably related to the regression caused by bug# 290936, but that was addressed for the 4.8.0 release. So the question is do you still see this problem with the latest version of KDE, v4.9.x or higher ?
