Hi,

This message is for all who want to get rid
of the nepomuk process which is using up all the
CPU cycles on the Linux KDE desktop.

I found out where the nepomuk is started up from.

Its in the /usr/share/autostart directory ,
under the file nepomukserver.desktop .

As someone wrote below,

http://forums.opensuse.org/applications/418846-how-do-i-get-rid-nepomuk-virus.html

renaming this file (/usr/share/autostart/nepomukserver.desktop)
with a non .desktop extension and
clearing out the $HOME/.kde4/share/apps/nepomuk directory
seems to stop this service from running on startup.

Cheers!
