My system is going slow and I'm researching why.
polkit-kde-auth???
then I've searched in the logs and I found a lot of process polkit-agente-helper-1.... well, they are here although they are all two weeks old.
I've killed them all (sounds like The Lord of The Rings :-) )
And I see that some begin to appear again.
What’s that?
regards
