Sorry, it seems this was my mistake. Please close this as "not a bug".
For the benefit of anybody who makes the same mistake, it appears that it happens if there are files in /var/tmp/kdecache-<username> that are not owned by <username>. I suggest removing this directory and letting it be recreated. I had changed my UID (to match my UID on a NFS server). I changed the ownership of all files in my home directory to match the new UID and then rebooted. But I didn't realise that there were files elsewhere that persisted across reboots. -- kpat uses 100% CPU for a while when selecting game type https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367062 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
