Version: (using KDE KDE 3.97.0) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Hi, I'm aware of the other "Connection to localhost has been lost" errors but I believe mine is different. This happens whenever I run "System monitor KDE4" from the main KDE4 menu. it doesn't ask for password. If I run it from the konsole it will work! but if I run it from the konsole with kdesu it will give a different error, and then it hangs. The error when running "kdesu ksysguard-kde4" from the konsole is: Qt: Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed QMutex::lock: Deadlock detected in thread -1260222752 Looks like a mess of various problems. David.
bug might be related to my other bug here: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154355
Hi David, do you have the program ksysguardd in your path? or has that also been renamed ksysguardd-kde4 or something? What if you do both kdesu which ksysguard-kde4 kdesu which ksysguardd could you paste the output from those? John
kdesu which ksysguard-kde4 /usr/bin/ksysguard-kde4 kdesu which ksysguardd /usr/lib/kde4/bin/ksysguardd There are 2 packages now ksysguardd and ksysguardd-kde4 I installed ksysguardd-kde4
Can you still reproduce this bug? I suffered this bug a long time ago. (LibXres wasn't installed in my system so Ksysguardd wouldn't start, causing KSysguard to complain about the lost connection to localhost)
Dario - Prompted by your comment, I have removed xres support now (SVN Revision 840354) since it wasn't really needed and has been causing such problems. The kdesu problem is not ksysguard's fault - it's a general xauth thing and is probably fixed now by your distro. I'm closing this bug, but feel free to reopen
Shouldn't this bug be closed?
