Description Daniel Engelschalt 2003-11-11 19:22:46 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 2.95.3 
OS:          Linux

just compiled qt-copy/kdelibs/kdebase from cvs head. kwin crashes very often (at least every 10 minutes) when pressing buttons in various applications. crash can be seen that caption line (above menu) disappears.
found the following in .X.err:

*argh* so you see what happens, when another window opens in that situation. you can't continue typing...

.X.err said:
ASSERT: "block_stacking_updates == 0" in layers.cpp (528)

maybe it's related to the crash.

btw: i did a clean install with rm -rf $KDEDIR and mv $HOME/.kde $HOME/.kde-old
Comment 2 Lubos Lunak 2003-11-11 19:39:11 UTC 
No, that's not related. How about the backtrace from the crash?
Comment 3 Daniel Engelschalt 2003-11-11 20:05:53 UTC 
if i had one i would post it. kcrash doesn't catch it, the title bar just disappears and that's all.

67914 has a backtrace. It's the same assertion failure.
