When my Kubuntu starts i can't do anything until starting System Activity and killing Kate. I can not start any program or for example run Dolphin file manager. After terminating Kate a message is shown:

Afterwards everything is OK. How may i solve this problem?

  • You could always remove it... sudo apt-get remove kate - alternatives include gedit, mousepad and leafpad if you need any - more here as well.

  • To add to @Wilf's suggestion, you can change the default editor by going to System Settings > File Associations > application > x-shellscript and changing the order of items in Application Preference Order

The problem was that i had a shell script in my /home/user/.kde/Autostart folder which was supposed to run on start. But i had not changed its mode to executable. Changing the mode by "sudo chmod +x " solved the problem.

  • Same problem, same solution. Mine was the setlocale.sh script in the autostart folder. Dec 21, 2014 at 23:10
