How do I do that?

Mandrake does use fam. It is an xinetd service in there. I started it, but I 
cannot see a "fam" process. Is that normal? I looked  into /var/log/messages 
and that says fam started successfully. Still kded uses the same CPU. Do I 
have to restart kded? (how?)

# service fam start
fam is a xinetd service
Reloading configuration:                                        [  OK  ]
# ps -aef | grep fam

# tail /var/log/messages

On my another machine where kded does not take any cpu, fam is not seen in 
output of "ps" either, but the service is running.
