Hi, i have a problem. When i run an app from krunner(alt+f2) and then close it, it becomes a zombie process Why? The same thing when i try to logout, it doesnt work. when i restart the X server and log into KDE again, all of left runinng programs are zombies.

Does this affect any particular application(s)? Or does it affect every application?

All apps run by krunner.

For example: i type kquitapp plasma in krunner window. My desktop goes blank, but the plasma process still exist on the list. Then when i type in konsole killall plamsa it dies, but next time i run plasma i can see two processes on the list: one is plasma, and 2nd plasma zombie.

Open Konsole, then try this, posting the output here at the end of the procedure.

Code: Select all

kquitapp krunner
ps aux | grep krunner
krunner &

Then execute an application with KRunner.

Looks like it works now. I can even logout, and after login there are no zombies. That's really interesting why i happened... Anyway thanks alot.
