Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.6.5) OS: Linux In the Recently Used tab of KickOff the list of Documents has nothing to do with the contents of ~/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments folder.The Kickoff tab does not respond to any changes of that folder. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Manually empty the ~/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments folder. Open new documents (clicking on them in Konqueror). Opening them from desktop shortcuts or KickOffs menu items. Nothing ever changes in the Document section of the Recently Used tab. Note that the Applications section works normally. 1. Look at the Documents section of the Recently Used tab of Kickoff. 2. Right-click in that section. 3. Click on the "Clear Recent Documents" item. Actual Results: Emptied the ~/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments folder Did not change the Clear the Documents section of the Recently Used tab of KickOff Expected Results: Emptied the Clear the Documents section of the Recently Used tab of KickOff. Doing the same operation with Sweeper has the same (lack of) effect. The items in the Documents section of Recently Used tab of KickOff remain until a reboot. After the reboot the section remains empty for a time and then gets populated by older documents that may have been used several days before the reboot. KickOff behaved normally until around 10 days ago. I have never experienced this problem before.

It also has no effect on what appears in the the Recently Used tab. It behaves identically to a right-click and then clicking Remove Recent Documents. Thanks, Jonathan

I can confirm this. I didn't have this problem until I installed the 3.0 kernel. Since updating the kernel I've experienced quite a few bugs, this one is the first I noticed. I'm not sure that the new kernel is the cause; in fact, it seems unlikely to me. However, I didn't have any issues until I made the kernel upgrade. My system: Archlinux x86_64 linux 3.0 KDE 4.7.0 Nvidia 280.13-1 P.S. Jonathan, aren't you also running the Linux 3.0 kernel on your Debian machine? FYI - I'm Pennyless from the KDE forum.

SOLVED!!! I had a kernel update this morning to 3.0.0-4.dmz.2-liquorix-amd64. After rebooting with this new kernel all the symptoms disappeared. This is consistent with Lamar Clark's suggestion or it could be a coincidence.
