Suddenly, or Im browsing files and it hangs up a lot.
I dont know if I got unwanted lurkers or if it’s the software. Its a fresh install really. But it is really up to date.
Probably annoying, but please describe more specific what happens.
So I opened Dolphin and was browsing my ssd home folder and it got stuck. I tried to open a folder, it didnt respond. Finally it opened some folder, and it got stuck again, I couldnt open any folders or move files until it responded. Didnt go gray or anything, just froze. It would go gray when I tried to close it. I closed it and then plugged an external hdd, and it did the same, took long to respond, if I opened a folder the response time was too long, then finally it opened it, but when I opened another folder inside it, it would take long to respond , couldnt select anything, etc, until after a while it recognized my click on some file and it got selected a while later.Then after a while it behaved normally, but I had this happen intermittently. No Discover process was updating.
Also the whole KDE desktop seems to get stuck while discover updates. If I switch from Discover to another window, try to click anything on the panel or desktop, or do alt tab I get no response, even Discover freezes, until after Discover finishes upgrading, then after a while it all goes back to normal. Sometimes even Discover shuts down during an install of software.
After a fresh reboot the behaviour is maintained?
It happened twice, once after a reboot, right now it’s acting normally
It just recovered from an intermittent hang up, and it does seem like something between software bugs and unethical hacking, almost makes me feel as if the system is being watched remotely during these hang ups, has this thing got backdoors or something? I mean if someone got my IP from here or if I got one of those viruses that can trascend hardware and look into any systems installed or clone themselves thru other devices? So much for a Linux system. It behaves very crappily often.
