Version: (using KDE 4.4.1) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Sometimes when I start an application, I get this: "Error launching [...]. Either KLauncher is not running anymore, or it failed to start the application." This happens especially often right after the start of kde, but sometimes also on a running session. It only happened so far with kde's own apps, e.g. kmail. I'll attach a photo of the screen (can't do screenshots as it lock's the rest of the screen).
not a plasma bug, almost certainly a problem with your installation, not enough information provided to go deeper than that.

Erh and now? Can you tell me what information you need? What does "a problem with your installation" mean? Can you point me to some documentation what it could be? The problem is definitely existing.
I can confirm on openSUSE 11.2 with KDE 4.4.1, although I get this error message very seldomly only. This looks like a problem with either KToolInvocation or KRun, therefore reassigning to kdelibs (further triaging desired).
