My xsession-errors file:

Here's a few entries in my file:

X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 158
  Major opcode:  150
  Minor opcode:  3
  Resource id:  0x0
Failed to open device

The above is repeated many times.

Then this is the next error:
kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::insertKAccel( kaccel = 0x80e6b98 ): 
KAccel object already contains an action name "file_quit"

Then:
kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel(): call to deprecated action.

then:
X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3
  Major opcode:  19
  Minor opcode:  0
  Resource id:  0x1e00044

finally:
kdecore (KLibLoader): WARNING: KLibrary: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8: 
undefined symbol: PKCS7_content_free

I see nothing about kontact or konqueror.

Also after clicking on a link in kontact, the bouncing icon never goes away, 
and when I check kde system guard I see many instances of this line:

kfmclient 11440 0.00 0.00 0 28,428 8,884 david kfmclient [kdeinit] openURL 
https://list.ububntu.com/mailm

This happens for any URL I try to click on. the process's in system guard 
never go away and the PID just keeps going up and up.
