This just means that agent didn't start quickly enough
        ( with no reason given )

Another message obout the same occurance . . . .

There are any number of ways to get this to happen, including
        ( bearing in mind that it was working before )

1/ The machine is heavily loaded 
        cpu maxed out
        memory swapping
        disk io slow

Check all the loadings . . . including the running NX jobs, "top" "iostat" 

        web browsers, acroread, flash, indexers, akonadi, nepomuk etc etc



2/ Something got moved / deleted / corrupted / unmounted

Check if nxagent is still there etc ( and not just the wrapper script )

You can delete running programs from the disk
         without killing the running instance

AND

the age old questions . . . . ( well 60 years ) . . . .

a/ what was the last thing you changed on the machine ???

b/ how long has the machine been running since a boot-up

ALSO

How many sessions could you get running simultaneously before this 
happened ???

Quite annoying Olaf  isn't it ???


Good luck anyway !!  Let us know how you get on . . .
