Hi everybody, It's been some time now that KDE applications are running very slow on my kfreebsd machine. They usually take forever to start and then when certain actions take place (that probably need to open libraries) they freeze temporarily. ktrace report tons of lines like this: ... 14635 kaddressbook NAMI "/lib/libaudio.la" 14635 kaddressbook RET open -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 14635 kaddressbook CALL open(0x81a1270,0,0) 14635 kaddressbook NAMI "/usr/lib/libaudio.la" 14635 kaddressbook RET open -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 14635 kaddressbook CALL open(0x81a1270,0,0) 14635 kaddressbook NAMI "/lib/i486-kfreebsd-gnu/libaudio.la" 14635 kaddressbook RET open -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 14635 kaddressbook CALL open(0x81a14b0,0,0) 14635 kaddressbook NAMI "/usr/lib/i486-kfreebsd-gnu/libaudio.la" 14635 kaddressbook RET open -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 14635 kaddressbook CALL open(0x81a14b0,0,0) 14635 kaddressbook NAMI "/usr/X11R6/lib/libaudio.la" 14635 kaddressbook RET open -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 14635 kaddressbook CALL open(0x81a1340,0,0) 14635 kaddressbook NAMI "libaudio.la" 14635 kaddressbook RET open -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 14635 kaddressbook CALL open(0x81a1350,0,0) 14635 kaddressbook NAMI "/lib/libaudio" ...
(you'll notice the lack of the .so extension on the last line) It isn't just libaudio but all the libraries that the application depends on that don't have dev packages installed. The libraries are repeatedly tried and I get thousands of lines like above. The only libraries that properly get loaded are the ones that I have dev packages installed for (and therefore the libtool files that are searched for above exist). Does anyone have an idea why these kde apps behave this way? -- Konstantinos Koukopoulos University of Athens Tel: +30 210 727 5404 http://users.uoa.gr/~kouk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
