           Summary: Kontact starting, running, but doesn't show up
           Product: kontact
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: thomasj at fedoraproject.org


Version:           kdepim-4.4.0-4.fc12.x86_64 (using KDE 4.4.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

Description of problem:
If you start Kontact (nepomuk running very well) it starts, but no GUI comes
up. You can see that it's working behind the scenes if you follow the output in
a terminal. Kmail fetching emails for example.

You can make the GUI appear with: 
qdbus org.kde.kontact /kontact/MainWindow_1 com.trolltech.Qt.QWidget.show

But it's busy, no reaction at all. Another funny thing is two green arrows in
the upper left corner (one single and a double) on top of the GUI (or within,
hard to tell) of Kontact.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kdepim-runtime-debuginfo-4.4.0-2.fc12.x86_64
kdepimlibs-4.4.0-2.fc12.x86_64
kdepim-runtime-4.4.0-2.fc12.x86_64
kdepim-debuginfo-4.4.0-4.fc12.x86_64
kdepimlibs-akonadi-4.4.0-2.fc12.x86_64
kdepim-libs-4.4.0-4.fc12.x86_64
kdepim-runtime-libs-4.4.0-2.fc12.x86_64
kdepimlibs-devel-4.4.0-2.fc12.x86_64
kdepimlibs-debuginfo-4.4.0-2.fc12.x86_64


How reproducible:
Everytime you try to start Kontact

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start Kontact
2. run: qdbus org.kde.kontact /kontact/MainWindow_1
com.trolltech.Qt.QWidget.show
3. Wait a few hours and kill kontact then, because nothing happens.

Actual results:
Kontact not proper starting

Expected results:
Kontact starts proper

Additional info:
Started Kontact within gnome shows me that it starts nepomuk perfectly
(notification from nepomuk in systray saying akonadi server is started and can
be used), but kontact though hangs in a death loop telling in a popup "Starting
akonadi server..".
