Hello Dareel: I didt both things. First if i dont suspend the laptop, even kdesktop go runaway. For this reason i start to suspend it. pc # Top kdesktop 70% kdesktop 80% Firefox etc (is over more than 100% by the dual core) Under kdesktop runaway: I can use the computer normally (a little more slower than normal), open programs ONLY from menu at bottom left. Close programs. Save the work in my programs. Print, listen sound, navigate on internet, and check emails. I can press ALT+CTRL+F1 to get a console and make reboot on command line. I can press ALT+CTR+BAKSPACE to force a logout I CANNOT make click on icons on desktop. The computer is with the fan at max speed. If i press ALT+CTRL+BACKSPACE, and login again, everything start to works Best Regards Christian On Thursday 17 April 2025 19:05:38 Darrell Anderson via tde-users wrote: > On 4/17/25 2:06 AM, Christian Schmitz via tde-users wrote: > > I have a computer that i didnt turn off, simply put in suspend mode.
