I just downloaded the latest version of the mini-KDE iso, the partitioner worked and everything installed just great......
....but typically, when I try to start something, I get the bouncing cursor graphic for a LONG time, then nothing.... the I try to start the same thing again and it opens as it should, as if the first time, it misfired.
I've seen this with Firefox, Tasty, things in Wine, OpenOffice.... practically everything I try to start, the first time is a miss, the second time works.
Any ideas as to the cause?
Thanks!

Well, first, here's the Konsole output when I open Kate (in this case, to edit xorg.conf).....
and then Kate opens xorg.conf and I can do what ever and save it.
..... and tonight when I typed firefox in Konsole, Firefox opened and there was no report in Konsole.
Any thoughts?

kbuildsycoca running...
Reusing existing ksycoca
kio (KSycoca): ERROR: No database available!
..... and tonight when I typed firefox in Konsole, Firefox opened and there was no report in Konsole.
Any thoughts?
I have seen it but im stuffed I can work it out.
but i have an idea that some database/log/file/list is not initialised and it takes the first time to initialise it for that app and then it is ok.
looks from your output that it is ksycoca and kio some sort of kde IO app.
i will look into it.

I may have left this in /var/tmp/
oh an try a sudo kate file
and see what you get.

input devices (tablet PC's)
It is fixed by removeing the 3 wacom Input devices from xorg.conf, and don't forget the matching server entries.
and dont forget to backup before editing.
