           Summary: dbus-daemon consumes 100% cpu after a few days
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: billm at melbpc.org.au


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

The session bus dbus-daemon consumes 100% of one core starting about a week
after a fresh boot.

There is a suggestion
(http://us.generation-nt.com/answer/bug-630002-dbus-dbus-daemon-consumes-40-cpu-amd64-help-203742362.html)
that this may be related to " a KDE process that leaks D-Bus connections".

/proc/ID/fd shows that dbus-daemon has 1024 file descriptors, most of them
sockets.

This is on Kubuntu 11.04

KDE applications such as kmail, knode, etc become unusable when dbus-daemon
gets to this state.

Which application(s) are likely to be causing the problem?  Is there any way
other than re-booting to get dbus-daemon to resume functioning correctly?


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Just run KDE for a few days.


Actual Results:  
dbus-daemon stops some KDE applications from functioning correctly

Expected Results:  
All applications should function as normal
