Description michal 2006-10-25 23:33:54 UTC 
Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.5.5, PLD Linux Distribution)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.6 (PLD Linux)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.17

open("/var/log/messages", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++

This makes ksysguard and it's kicker applet unusable (at least when not running as root).
Comment 1 Bram Schoenmakers 2006-10-26 20:23:42 UTC 
Already fixed for KDE 3.5.6.
Comment 2 michal 2006-10-26 20:43:52 UTC 
Can you point me to apropriate change in SVN so I can patch my installation?

r598024

This was against trunk, but I think it is similar to the patch you're looking 
for.
Comment 4 Greg Martyn 2006-10-27 01:08:12 UTC
