I had once the same problem... every time you kill amarok (ctrl + alt +
backspace, loggout) there are some ruby processes left over and cute KDE
restarts them every login... at least that was the problem on my PC...
so i just killed all the ruby processes :) of course this is more a
dirty than a solution. :)
