Got a stuck folder icon on 3.5.9 Gentoo

Every time I make a new folder icon it pops up a network samba link icon. Not sure how it happened but I've tried replacing the icon but the next icon pops up the same. Also, changing the icon theme does not change it back either.... it's stuck like white on rice!!! I have tried reemerging kde-base (gentoo) but it's back when I boot in.

X11 compositing not working on KDE with 2 cards

I've got 2 video cards that do 2 separate x sessions to for one dual monitor xinerama desktop. Shadows and effects handled by the nvidia cards do not work. In fact the primary screen goes black and the secondary screen is visible but nothing works on it. I'm not sure if this is an X11 issue or a KDE issue but I thought I'd at least post it.

Forgot to compile in cdr support with kde

Quoted Originally posted by Rinse Quoted Originally posted by Thaidog Yes I can from su with this: mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom that's mounting, not browsing can you browse on the cd with tools like cat, more, ls, cd, etc? Once it's mounted with that command I can get to the files no problem... but not before that.

Forgot to compile in cdr support with kde

Yes I can from su with this: mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom The fstab entry looks ike this: dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0 When I insert an disk or dvd with files on it I get "invalid filesystem type" error from KDE. But... If I insert a cd that's been burned as an "iso" KDE opens it and sees everything fine.

Trash can showing full with nothing in it.

For some reason my desktop trash can shows that it has files in it but when you open it there are no files to empty. If you try to empty it the trash can still shows files in it. Is there some way to reset this?

I have 2 KDE desktops at once!

I have a dual head video card (ATI FireGL X1 256p) and I'm trying to configure it to use multiple monitors. Both monitors come up but instead of having one desktop between both monitors I have 2 separate KDE sessions for each monitor!!! I have tried using the video card's config program to try and configure the two head to be one desktop but nothing seems to get rid of the second KDE session. How do I stop this second session from starting?
