           Summary: when nfs share is not more available, plasma-desktop
                    freezes
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.7

Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

I'm using kubuntu 11.04 64 bit, kde 4.7.0.

When the NFS share is not more available ( nfs server power off, nfs service
stopped ecc) all plasma desktop not more works...
The right click over desktop not works, all plasma widget not works,  but I can
switch between windows (alt+tab).
>From system monitor I can see that plasma-desktop process's is on "disk
waiting" status

When the nfs share is available all return to works fine.

best regards

PS: this problem affects also kde 4.6.5

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mount a nfs share 
2. from nfs server simply stop nfs service or shutdown  the server

Actual Results:  
after few seconds all plasma desktop freeze (as i already described on
"details" tab).

to unlock the whole desktop simply restart nfs service or boot up again the
server.


Expected Results:  
When the nfs service goes down for some reason, the plasma desktop should  not
crash, but it should continue to operate normally.
Only the nfs mount point should not be more available.
