you question. It means all the time if it happened once :-) Sometimes 
works, but if does not work once won't work anymore



problem with the
open script window, which basically hangs and does not allow to open
anything. The whole interface is then gray shaded (without any menu,
scripts etc visible) and nothing works. See a capture:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6113358/rkward_issue.png

I am using the devel version:
$ rkward --version
Qt: 4.8.1
KDE Development Platform: 4.8.4 (4.8.4)
RKWard: 0.5.7z+0.5.8+devel1

Here is a link to the output file obtained with $ rkward --debug-level 5.

( I am not sure I need to send the whole thing? maybe only a small part
is interesting?)

Yes, typically only the last ~100 lines are of interest. In this case, it's
only the very last line. Unfortunately, that means, the debug log simply
doesn't show what's the problem.


Please let me know what more information I can provide.

I don't really have an idea, what could be the problem. I guess it is related
to some local settings. Two things to test:

1) Try the File-Open dialog in kwrite or kate. Does that work?
clever. And that was it! Kate too! So the problem is more in KDE... need 
to check my packages and so on, will investigate that way, thanks!!




2) Close RKWard, rename ~/.kde/share/config/rkwardrc , start RKWard, and try
again.

*If* 2) fixes the problem, you could try to track down which setting in the
configuration was causing trouble. I.e. open the renamed rkwardrc in a text
editor, modify, save as ~/.kde/share/config/rkwardrc , start RKWard and test
whether the issue occurs. My guesses would be that the sections [KFileDialog
Settings], [Recent Dirs], or [Recent Files] could be the problem, so
simply try removing those, one at a time.

Thomas

I suspects it's still some bad interaction between KDE and some local setting. 
One thing to try would be renaming ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals .

Perhaps it's something like an inaccessible network drive stored as one of the 
recent directories. Of course that's no excuse for a hanging dialog, but if 
you can identify something like this as the triggering condition, that would 
surely help fixing the issue.

i've seen similar things before, but only on windows installations. there, it 
helped to call something like

  setwd(C:/) 

on the R console before opening the dialog. i suspected removable devices like 
USB sticks to be the cause. you could try

  setwd(~)
