Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.0) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux I installed recent 3.5rc1 packages for kubuntu. If I move the mouse over any Icon on the Desktop, it gets blank ans kdesktop is restarted. Starting kdesktop from konsole shows that it segfaults. Would kdelibs-gdb files help to debug this? -Marc
I did "rm .kde/share/config/kdesktoprc" and then kdesktop did not crash again. I have a backup of the config file though. Maybe its a good Idea to fix this anyhow because IMO many KDE upgraders will have a problem when they upgrade to 3.5 otherwise... I played a bit with the old kdesktoprc: This was my [Desktop Icons]-Section: ------------------------------------ [Desktop Icons] Preview=imagethumbnail,cursorthumbnail,ldifvcardthumbnail,djvuthumbnail,exrthumbnail,htmlthumbnail,pothumbnail,gsthumbnail,fontthumbnail,svgthumbnail,picturethumbnail,audio/,textthumbnail,videothumbnail,webarchivethumbnail ShowHidden=false VertAlign=true ------------------------------------ Removing that strange "audio/" entry fixed the problem, but I do not know where this came from. I never edited the kdesktoprc file by myself with a text editor . Maybe a check/filter for those entries while reading the file would be a good thing? -Marc
Me again ;) Ok finally it seems that the "preview" of Sound-Files is broken. If I check the setting to preview sound files on the desktop ind the kdesktop-Settings, kdekstop crashes immediatly when moving the mouse over any icon, at least Folders and wav-Files. So the audio/ entry seems not to be "weired" but normal. Cheers -Marc
Can you paste the crash backtrace, please? I believe the crashes with audio files have been fixed.

Thank you, thought so. The bug is in your gcc (libstdc++). Notify your distribution to fix it ASAP: a fix has been available for a while. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 111115 ***
Bug closed. Kdesktop is no more mantained.
