Greetings all;
I did get it restarted but it was quite a dance. And I think changing
the screen background was what killed it. It disappeared when I clicked
on apply to change the background. But I just changed the background to
half the supplied photos w/o it happening again.
But it happened. This might be a place to write a script to relaunch if
it disappears from the process list. I hope it doesn't happen
frequently.
Just saying I guess. Bit of a puzzle to navigate ones workspaces by
ctl+F#.
Cheers, Gene Heskett

I should add, that it was also gone from the list htop shows, as I have a
habit of running a root session of htop as one of the "background things
I find handy to kill an errant process with. So it was well and truly
gone, and I restarted it from a konsole.

When it happens, from konsole you should be able to use dcop to restart it with:
$ dcop kicker Panel restart
or
$ dcop kicker kicker restart
You can list the available options with, e.g.
$ dcop kicker Panel
or
$ dcop kicker kicker
and you should see:
void restart()
available for each.

You can see what is available to dcop simply by typing dcop at the command
line, e.g.
$ dcop
dcop
konqueror-3300
kwin
kicker
kate-3345
kded
kmix
knotify
kalarmd
klauncher
knotes
khotkeys
kmail <== Ahah!
kdesktop
konsole-3368
klipper
ksmserver
kgpg
knetworkmanager
basket
Then you work your way down the dcop chain, e.g.
$ dcop kmail
qt
ConnectionManager
KDebug
KIMProxyIface
KIO::Scheduler
KMailICalIface
KMailIface (default)
KPIM::IdentityManager
MailTransportServiceIface
MainApplication-Interface
html-widget1
kmail
kmail-mainwindow#1
ksycoca
There is a whole lot you can do with KMailIface, kmail-mainwindow#1 (the
current window), and MainApplication-Interface -- but unfortunately there is
nothing menu specific. It is pretty amazing all that is there, but no rabbit
to pull out of the dcop hat for kmail menus.

We should grow a qdbus with those listing capabilities. The above one
liner, works about 99.99% of the time.
