--- Comment #6 from off...@hantsch.co.at --- Hello, again. Meanwhile I can definitely confirm that this new KDE Slideshow plugin must have an internal problem. Yesterday I restarted the plugin by temporarily switching to a single wallpaper and then back to slideshow. Right now I noticed that within last 15 minutes it froze again. Neither "rightclick -> Next Wallpapaer" nor automatic wallpaper change happens now. So I have to repeat the double-change between single wallpaper and slideshow again. A possible trace... I use images that are replaced every 5 minutes by a separate process. This process retrieves pictures from my web cams and replaces previous ones. Is it possible that kde Slideshow in current version has a problem with that? I assume that KDE is not able to detect a stucking slideshow process and to restart it on demand. That would be too nice. But is there a way to either do that from a bash script in regular intervals, or to enforce a reload (= kill and new start) of KDE-Slideshow from commandline/bash ? This way I could do the sledgehammer method and restart the slideshow i.e. every hour. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
