From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020513 Description of problem: When KDE inital login sees an old KDE 1.x config environment, it asks if you want to convert. If you select yes, it hangs, eating 99% of a CPU. Even after a telinit 3, telini5, and login as gnome, the KDE process continues to hang. When the process is killed, it loads KDE, even on top of gnome. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Log in, select KDE as Window manager (must have an old KDE 1.x config, and none newer) 2.CTRL-ALT F1 and log in 3.telinit 3 4. telinit 5 5. Log in Gnome 6. use top to see the convert process eating 100% of one CPU 7. Kill convert process Actual Results: KDE loads on top of gnome Expected Results: Initial conversion should convert within a reasonable timeframs (say 2 minutes max) then load KDE. If conversion is not possible, abort converstion, return error, and ask to load back up 1.x config, then continue loading KDE. Additional info:
