[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#397508: Same behavior in current etch

[Rainer Dorsch]

Hello,

I just wanted to add, that I saw the same behavior today and I do have a 
standard etch installation.

rdorsch at paddy:~$ dpkg -s hal|grep Version
Version: 0.5.8.1-4
rdorsch at paddy:~$ dpkg -s kde-guidance-powermanager|grep Version
Version: 0.7.0-1
rdorsch at paddy:~$

It worked before, maybe the problem came with one of the etch updates I 
installed today (don't remember which packages came).

I stopped powermanager to get rid of the annoying box. 


Now I don't know, how to start it.



rdorsch at paddy:~$ guidance-power-manager

gives me a lot of errors (not sure, if they are related to the original 
problem):
