[kde-freebsd] Annoying network folder notifications

[Bengt Ahlgren]

Hi!

This is probably not the right list for this question, but as this might
be specific to the FreeBSD install...

I just upgraded to KDE 4.7.4 from 4.5.x (don't remember exactly) running
on a 8.2-STABLE from Feb 6.  As a result, I started to get a lot of
annoying notifications from the device notifier about network folders on
the local network.  There are also a lot of TCP connections being setup,
or tried, currently for example I have *39* of these:

tcp4       0      0 <mybox>.43716          <otherbox>.2869          TIME_WAIT

And some of these:

tcp4       0      0 <mybox>.54887          <otherbox2>.2869         ESTABLISHED
tcp4       0      0 <mybox>.54886          <otherbox2>.2869         ESTABLISHED
tcp4       0      0 <mybox>.30912          <otherbox>.2869          ESTABLISHED

I think these connections are related to the notifications of the
network folders.

Is this normal?  It is a bit excessive, I think.

I have not found any KDE system setting to control this behaviour.  I am
usually uninterested of network folders, and would rather explicitly
browse the network when (if) needed.
