If you don't need sound you can consider disabling aRts -- the MCOP stuff is not part of KDE proper and only of the aRts sound server. KDE 4 will no longer use aRts anyway, but in the mean time there ought to be another solution. aRts is fragile though, and I don't envy the poor sod who dives in it to try to fix it... -- Martijn Murray Trainer said: > Hi Chris, > > I found an old article that said the mcop-userid directories need to > machine specific so for our situation with NFS home directories things > wouldn't work right if we could move them to user temp directories.
