Re: [coLinux-users] Killing colinux-daemon.exe

[Asif I. <a....@ie...>]

After couple of more crashes, I think I can confirm that before a
crash, these messages are displayed:

kdecore (KProcess): WARNING: _attachPty() 10
konsole: WARNING: Unable to use /usr/share/apps/konsole/screen.desktop

If I leave the system in this hungup state, then after half an hour or
so, it recovers itself and prints this message:
konsole: Fatal IO error: client killed

Now, is there some possibility of solving it?

On another note: I am no ardent fan of KDE, the only thing is that
konsole is much better than rigid fltk colinux console which does not
allow any copy/paste, no re-scaling, nothing.
