           Summary: [testcase] KDE config files content is deleted when
                    applications are launched while the home directory is
                    full
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: kropx77 gmail com


Version:           4.00.69 (KDE 4.0.69 >= 20080410) (using 4.00.70 (KDE 4.0.70 >= 20080418), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-16-generic

This is a severe issue due to KDE updating config files *after* applications are closed.

Testcase (trying to reproduce it is not advised)

- Open a KDE session,
- Open KDE applications
- Fill your home partition 
- Close your KDE apps (or logout)

=> Look in $KDEHOME/.kde/share/config, the applications you opened while the partition was full now have a zero size. All settings were lost.
