f31,kde :: dolphin autostarting without being requested

[Adrian Sevcenco]

Hi! Some time ago, after some updates, i started to have the dolphin 
auto starting a window with my $HOME. This is not related to File 
Manager setting as my default is Konqueror..

Did anyone encounter anything similar?
Any idea what is going on?
Thanks!
Adrian

Have you enabled Restore Manually Saved Session, or Restore Previous
Session (System Settings->Startup and Shutdown)? Is Dolphin listed in
the Autostart apps?

The Fedora KDE list might be a better place to ask.

FYI, I see the same "dolphin auto-starting" behavior.  Looking at 
"Settings --> System Settings --> Startup and Shutdown", I have
"restore 
previous session" set, dolphin is not set to auto-start and dolphin 
isn't running when I log off or restart. It is a bit odd.  I assumed 
that it was a side effect of my cloud service (pCloud) starting.

I have Restore Manually Saved Session, but that session does include
several Dolphin panes. However I've noticed recently that I'm getting
one extra pane when I log in, so possibly there is a bug worth
reporting.

I suggest you post this on the Fedora KDE list to see if other people
are seeing similar issues. It might be preferable to continue the
discussion there so as to avoid cross-posting.

I meant the OP of course, not you.

Agreed (post to KDE list).  Adrian -- are you going to post the question 
there?

Since this hasn't been followed up here I decided to post it myself on
the KDE list. See

https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[e-mail]...

I suggest people send any comments to that list (without crossposting
here of course).

I apologize for late reply! At this moment my subscription request to 
kde fedora is still pending...
So, i do not have the lmod package but i did solved the problem by 
removing /etc/xdg/servicemenu.knsrc
So far i see no downsides to this..
Thanks!

Please follow up on the KDE Fedora list when your subscription is
enabled. There are already several comments in the thread.

Same behavior seen here.

Nope... Hopefully the next update will get rid of it ;)

However, following the advices seen in some other mails, I've checked 
what's running, and there was a dolphin running in daemon mode (no idea 
when/why that came to life - I don't think I 've ever used dolphin 
knowingly).

I then saved my sessions with the dolphin daemon shut down, logged
  out/in and there's no dolphin around any more.

(not sure now if I applied today's updates before or after the 
get-rid-of-dolphin manoeuver).

Best regards,

Iosif Fettich
