Description Jin-tong Hu 2011-12-06 00:00:56 CET

Description of problem:

With the Mageia 2 Alpha 1 KDE4 Live CD system installed on my hard disk, after I disconnected the ppp0 network connection from net_applet, I found in the system monitor that the kded4 process immediately comsumed 100% of either one of my 2 CPU cores. Moreover, some KDE apps, such as Kwrite and Konqueror, started to respond slower than usual. This situation continued even if I tried reconnecting the ppp0 connection from net_applet. I had to restart the system to get the system recovered.

How reproducible:

Everytime I disconnect the ppp0 connection from net_applet.

PS.: My network uses the ADSL PPPoE connection. When configuring the connection, I checked the two options below: start the connection at system startup and let the user manage the connection.

Of course reassign to bugsquad if, from the attachments that'll be provided, it becomes clear that you don't maintain the culprit.

And please explain, then :)

In my current Cauldron system, with all updates starting from Mageia 2 Alpha 1 applied, the problem has disappeared, so I close this bug. Thanks for your reply.
