When I start one from the terminal (be it Dolphin, Konqueror or whatever) the output generated is pretty much gigantic. It's stuff like this: QPainter::setPen: Painter not active QPainter::font: Painter not active QPainter::font: Painter not active QPainter::setFont: Painter not active QPainter::setPen: Painter not active QPainter::font: Painter not active konqueror(12426)/kio (Slave) KIO::Slave::createSlave: createSlave "file" for KUrl("file:///usr/share/apps/kdeui/about/box-top- middle.png") konqueror(12426)/kio (KIOConnection) KIO::ConnectionServer::listenForRemote: Listening on "local:/tmp /ksocket-realnc/konquerorb12426.slave-socket" kio_file(12429)/kio (kioslave) KIO::SlaveBase::mimeType: "image/png" kio_file(12431)/kio (kioslave) KIO::SlaveBase::mimeType: "image/png" kio_file(12433)/kio (kioslave) KIO::SlaveBase::mimeType: "image/png" kio_file(12435)/kio (kioslave) KIO::SlaveBase::mimeType: "image/png" konqueror(12426)/kio (Slave) KIO::Slave::createSlave: createSlave "file" for KUrl("file:///usr/share/apps/kdeui/about/box-middle- left.png") kio_file(12443) kdemain: Starting 12443 [...] [etc, etc, ad infinitum] Currently, after about 2 hours of uptime, my ~/.xsession-errors is about 12MB big and full with those debug messages. The "debug" USE flag is globally disabled. What's going on? I doubt this is intended behavior.
