Bug ID: 407855 Summary: Kdeinit5 unable to write to NFS share Product: kde Version: unspecified Platform: Mint (Ubuntu based) OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org Reporter: bigbro...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Kde is unable to start when user home is an NFSv3 share. I can also confirm this to happen when you try to run a kde application in other desktop environment like gnome or even mint. I get this error qt5ct: using qt5ct plugin XmbTextListToTextProperty result code -2 XmbTextListToTextProperty result code -2 XmbTextListToTextProperty result code -2 XmbTextListToTextProperty result code -2 kf5.kio.core: Refilling KProtocolInfoFactory cache in the hope to find "mtp" kf5.kservice.services: KServiceTypeTrader: serviceType "ThumbCreator" not found kdeinit5: Aborting.
