Description of problem: When I try to use the KDE lan browser, I get an error message stating that kio_lan could not be loaded. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdenetwork-3.1-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Konqueror 2. Click on the yellow star in the side pane 3. Click on LAN browser Actual results: The following error message is displayed in the Konqueror window: ----- An error occured while loading lan:/: Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_lan'. ----- Expected results: The LAN browser works as expected (perhaps it shows an icon for each system on the LAN or similar). Additional info: Apparently this feature is provided by kio_lan, which appears to be in the file list for kdenetwork (/usr/lib/kde3/kio_lan.so).
you have to start lisa daemon before. servive lisa start
I've got same issue and a google search for "io-slave kio_lan" shows quite a lot of others have it to! I'm using vanilla RH9 bar updating kdebase to 3.1-15 to fix the smb issue. lisa is running, thus: [root@localhost john]# telnet localhost 7741 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.
