Y0 wheres it hanging?
WMD:
What was the problem?
solemnwarning:
KDE!!!
Konqeror!!
Kintaro:
KDE sucks bigger dicks than me.
The problem was found when I did a ps aux and found about ten nautilus processes running, so i did a killall, and then ran "nautilus" and everything came back to life.
If I had have been more patent with the ftp process in the first place, it would not have happened.

Throughout my years of using Linux, I've always gone back and forth between KDE and Gnome. I never really had one I "liked." Konqeuror has really turned into a nice browser though, and KMail is nice too. In my latest Linux venture I've sort of gravitated toward KDE for no explainable reason. Maybe because with the exception of GAIM every app I run is native to KDE.
That aside. I would quit using KDE instantly if someone stood up and said, "Okay guys, enough of this BS -- we're standardizing on X." For the sake of Linux's future on the desktop, some kind of standardization has to occur. Maybe has is a strong word. If it wants to retain its current user base, it will be just fine; if it really wants to become a serious alternative it has to homogenize.
I'd rather an actual distro step up and do it (Fedora, Debian, somebody -- Ubuntu is kind of helping it) than some half-assed Linux 'company' like Linspire. Linspire and its ilk give Linux such a horrible name.
Ubuntu to the rescue. Really, you may hate to hear it and think it's clicheish -- but they're the best bet right now for general users. Now only if IBM, or some big name would step up and throw some cash their way -- ala Mozilla / AOL.

And that would be Y Windows.
