Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.7.1) OS: Linux At startup, an error dialog is displayed, everytime: The file or folder /mount does not exist. No custom programs that are set to run on startup has anything to do with /mount. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: na Actual Results: na Expected Results: na na
I grepped the entire KDE repositories, and nowhere does the string "/mount" appear, so you are either using third party software, or have it stored somewhere in your configuration files. I suggest to look for that string in your home config directories using this Konsole command (can take a long time): find ~/.[a-z]* -type f -exec grep -H "/mount" {} \;
Is there a way to trace the message back to its originating command? Nothing that I have in autostart in KDE's systemsettings is giving that message.
Also the title of the error message is: Error-Plasma Desktop Shell So it seems to be kde based.
You likely have a shortcut somewhere from a time when you used something mounted to /mount. Did you try the command from comment #1?
"You likely have a shortcut somewhere from a time when you used something mounted to /mount." Where would this shortcut be located? Why would it be launching at startup? "Did you try the command from comment #1?" Yes, but I didn't see anything that looked like it would be a startup item. There were a couple hundred lines there from other miscellaneous config files, so I can't be sure though. Doesn't kde have it's startup items consolidated to a single folder or two for me to look?
This sounds quite like a distro problem or configuration problem. What if you create a new user account and login using that account?
It seems to have stopped doing it after some upgrade.
