I logged in to my KDE Desktop and change KDE color theme using KDE control
panel to Oxygen and it fixed the Problem with DigiKam! But, that was yesterday.
Today the Logout Demon is back!:O I tried another color scheme in KDE and on it
Gnome too, but to no avail. I work in Gnome Desktop, but I have KDE installed
too. So, I logged in to the KDE Desktop and changed the color settings by just
choosing another Theme each time. Then tested the changes. The first time,
there was no change. The second time worked. The third it was back to Logging
me out instantly. That's a very odd bug to me. And a sad one too, Digikam is a
great App when it is Working. But I don't want to risk loosing all of my other
work if I forget and hit that side bar in Settings again. It looks like a great
App for working with and Importing Images from my Cameras and Cards. It will
import .mov files and other most Apps that I've found wont do that. Except
CamCardSync, which is a bit too simplistic for me. 

I'm not familiar with Kate. I looked in my Fedora 14 Repos for it and found
only 2 Apps that mention Kate. "Faust AUdio STreams is a functional programming
language for real-time audio signal processing. This package provides Faust
code syntax highlighting support for KDE's Kate/Kwrite." and "Artwiz is a
family of very small futuristic fonts, with varying styles of typefaces
designed at a single pixel size. The minimal nature of the fonts makes them
popular with users of lightweight window managers. These fonts have been
updated by Alec Zapka to be compatible with modern software and support an
extended character set. This package contains the Kates font in three
encodings, English, German, and Swedish." Are either of these what you are
talking about?

I have Kwrite and use it as my Default Text file editor with no problems. I use
Krusader as my File Manager and use Gwenview as my default Image Viewer. All
with no Problems. With the exception of the one Screen Shot of the DigiKam
Window, Configure – 'digiKam'_091.png, which caused the instant Logout when I
open it. I just noticed the special characters in the name and renamed the file
Configure-digiKam-091.png. But this made no difference with the Logout Problem.
I have run my System for 3 days without any problems, as long as I stay away
from this file and from DigiKam and that messed up png file. So my system is
fine...
