OpenSUSE :: Dolphin 1.5.9 Won't Restart / Why This Is Happening?
Aug 29, 2010
Anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening. I am able to start Dolphin normally either via keyboard shortcut or application launcher menu.
However if I close or exit out of the application I am then unable to open it again. Instead I get a bouncy icon and and spinning circle in the task bar and then nothing ......
Running a ps aux | grep from the CLI gives me the following processes that must be manually killed before I can reopen Dolphin.
icarus@linux-xjxa:~> ps aux | - Anonymous - xbswAMYR - Pastebin.com
any suggestions? I have tried disabling nepomuk and strigi thinking that might have been an issue but I still get the same problem. I also tried removing dolphinrc and dolphin from ~/.kde4/share/config and ~/.kde4/share/apps respectively... still no bueno.
I am running KDE Trunk repos on 11.3 x86_64

This is the set up
1. Server with ldap for authentication and autofs maps
2. Client machines have home directories on this server (nfs3) these machines also have some 'shared' directories on the same server (nfs4)
Now if I use a terminal I can always create files in the shared directories (subject to the relevant permissions) - I can also always save files in OO and the like. The problem is that Dophin sometimes has the create greyed out and sometimes it doesn't. So now I am at a loss as to why. This is 11.2 with kde 4.4.3 btw

I'm getting ~/.nfs file being generated and just filling up
Does anyone know the cause - and how to stop it before it fills my HDD?

I cannot use preview function in Dolphin to preview JPG files that the size is bigger than 3MB. It is no problem when the photos' size are smaller than 3MB. Do any one got the same problem?

I have just installed suse 11.3 and I have a problem in previewing images. Dolphin does preview the images, but they look corrupted. When I point with the mouse, images are shown perfectly on the information area on the right. I found that as I increase the preview size from the default 64 pixels to the maximum 256 pixels, most of the images are previewed correctly, but will only have 3 images per row

Dolphin crashes when previewing PNG files - with other image files (PS, PDF, JPG, DVI) when you roll the mouse over the file you get a preview pic in the top right corner - when I roll it over a PNG file, it halts for a second then crashes.

I am using OpenSUSE 11.3 with GNOME "attached". My problem is that Nautilus has become a burden for me and my simple needs. I often encounter a slow responsiveness (lag) and a slow speed browsing throughout folders/files. I have installed Dolphin and i wish to set it up as my default File Manager.

How do I edit a file (config file, etc.) in KWrite (instead of VI) from the bash shell?I can't seem to "see" certain files using Dolphin and the only way I can locate/see them is using the shell but I'm a complete VI newb and would rather use KWrite for the moment.

About 40% of the time when I try to open Dolphin (clicking the widget on the taskbar) I get launch feedback but it never opens Dolphin. If I then click it again, this time it will open. Where can I look in some log to find what error might be happening?

When I open Dolphin to view my pictures all the icons are that of a "hot air balloon". How can I change these to show the actual picture of the file like M$ does?

I can't open files with anything using Dolphin as superuser. For example with Kate:
Code:
KDEinit cannot launch /usr/bin/kate
Also, I can't launch kwrite or kate as root per below:
Code:
john@vostro:~> su
Password:
vostro:/home/john # kate
kate(3007): Session bus not found
[Code]....

When I copy files from one partition to another, or from one drive to another, the transfer rates hover around 5-8MB/sec which is kind of slow given that all my hard drives are SATA II. I have the same problem when copying either a single file or a group of files.
I'm running openSUSE 11.2 x64 here (KDE 4.3.5) with three SATA II hard drives that are all formatted with ext3. I have dropped to the CLI and used mv and cp instead - this seems to improve things but I shouldn't have to do this.

I'd like to keep the "Places" entries (I use them as bookmarks) that I had for Dolphin in 11.2 and transfer them into 11.3's Dolphin.

I might become a new kde4 user within a few weeks since I am testing suse 11.3 and kde4 seems to be, at last, stable enough to be used daily. But, there is one thing that is annoying : I used to split horizontally and vertically ad lib the konqueror file manager to drag and drop any file from a directory to another and have a global view of many directories simultaneously. That great feature doesn't seem to be available in dolphin, which is a good and performant file manager that I'd like to adopt. Any clue to split horizontally dolphin? Plugin? Script? Repository?

Is there a way that I can get Dolphin to mount partitions? When I try to, it gives me an error on the bottom of the window saying I don't have permission to. I also can't mount partitions in other programs like Amarok, because of the same issue.
Error Message:
An error occurred while accessing 'Windows 7', the system responded: org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy: org.freeDesktop.hal.storage.mount-fixed auth_admin_keep_always <-- (action, result)

In Konqueror, when browsing files the display would open in the "Advanced Embedded Text Editor" which was really handy. In Dolphin it
opens in Kate (KWrite by default but I changed it.) Is there a way to make Dolphin behave like Konqueror?

Is there any way to stop Dolphin from creating .directory files in all my directories when I am viewing hidden files?
I am pressing Alt+. to view hidden files in a directory.
Other file managers seem to do it fine.

Sometimes the Dolphin file manager displays a "waiting bar" with a blue dot moving left and right all the time.There is a message next to it, stating that the file folder is being loaded. But I do not know that there is anything happening, nor is there any need to load anything. There is also a little red "delete" button, but klicking on it achieves nothing.

I was in kde 4.4.4 and everything was quite fine, I upgraded to 4.6.2 and now dolphin hangs when I delete or transfer many (~30 of ~1GB each) files, it became unusable for minutes (~5), it can be used again only when the operation is finished, is there any workaround or I have to downgrade to 4.4.4?

I'm using opensuse 11.4 64 bits on an amd 3 kernel. One day it's working fine and the following i't works all fine except konqueror and dolphin. When i try to open them it seem to be frozen (the application, not the system), but in the end they open after 3-4 minutes. Then they work well, but if i close them and open again, or if i open another window I have the same problem. Othe applications (for example firefox) launch quickly.

I've got an ipod which I haven't used with my opensuse computer for a while, but recently tried to get it connected again. When I plug in the ipod, two devices show in Dolphin's "places" or in the KDE device notifier (in the plasma panel). One has the "name" I typed in when I set up the ipod with itunes, the other is labeled "iPod".
The one with the correct name mounts (albeit slowly, say 20 seconds or so) when I click on it in dolphin, but the second one doesn't mount and dolphin says "...mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock in /dev/sdc1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error...". "dmesg | tail" says "FAT: invalid media value (0x2f)" and "VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev sdc1".
Doing some further digging, under /dev/disk/by-id there are three entries for the ipod. One is "usb-Apple_iPod_xx-0:0 -> ../../sdc", the other two are "usb-Apple_iPod_xx-0:0-part1 -> ../../sdc1" and "usb-Apple_iPod_xx-0:0-part2 -> ../../sdc2". When I plug in my girlfriend's ipod, only the first two entries appear and there is only one listing in Dolphin's "places".
I don't remember this stuff happening last time I tried to use the ipod on the computer. I copied my songs to my hard drive and tried restore the ipod's default settings using my windows computer and itunes, but the same behavior continues. Has anyone else seen this? Should the ipod have these two partitions? Is there any way keep the non-functional part of the ipod from appearing in dolphin?

I have an openSUSE 11.2 and I was trying to connect to a FTP server from Dolphin application but it didn't work. (I used ftp://<IP ADDRESS> in the address field)
From CLI or using FileZilla I can connect to that server.
What could be the cause of this strange behavior?

I've got several Dolphin windows open which are deliberately carried through
from one session to another, so I can't see why it thinks I need a new one
each time I logon.
I'm using OpensSUSE 11.2, KDE 4.4.0.
