Version: 1.0 (using KDE 4.00.00 (KDE 4.0.0), Kubuntu packages) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.22-14-generic This is reproduceable behaviour: I try to drag'n drop a file/folder into another folder. dolphin crashes in every single case. This should not happen, as drag'n drop is one of the main features of a file manager ;) Backtrace: Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libthread_db.so.1".

Sorry, but I cannot reproduce this crash with Dolphin for KDE 4.0.0. Did you compile the packages yourself or do you refer to official Kubuntu packages?
those are the official kubuntu packages, last upgraded about 30 minutes ago.
I just installed the official Suse packages for KDE 4.0.0 (-> cannot reproduce) and also cannot produce it with the build sources for KDE 4.0.0. If there is a problem within Dolphin generally and no local problem for Kubuntu or your installation, then we'll get flamed anyway during the next days :-) So in the meantime I'll leave this issue to unconfirmed.
Just tried on revision 760683. It doesn't crash.
Thanks FiNeX for checking. As we get so many Kubuntu related bug reports currently which cannot be confirmed with other distributions, I'll set this issue to WORKSFORME, otherwise we'll lose the overview... :-/
*** Bug 156778 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I have the same problem for OpenSuse 10.3 packages on one of my computers.
(this copied from bug 155574) I have been able to isolate the problem, at least to me, to the config file: .kde4/share/config/kdeglobals The setting that causes the problem is: EffectAnimateMenu=true If that line is absent, or set to "false", then the right-click does not open files. If the line is present and set to "true", then right-clicking does open the file. An additional setting in the same file: EffectsEnabled=true If this line is absent, or set to "false", then the problem also does not occur. I am pretty sure turning off this setting also, by extension, turns off the EffectAnimateMenu setting. Further, I have bug Bug 155574Right-clicking on a file launches it. Removing this setting fixes this bug as well. So I think everyone who has the problem should try changing that one setting in their config file to see if it fixes the problem or if I am just a fluke. Either way I hope this helps solve the problem.
(this copied from bug 155574) I have tried loading System Settings, going to Appearance -> Style -> Effects Tab. There, setting the "Menu Effect" dropdown to either "Animate" or "Fade" triggers the problem. Setting it to "Disable" fixes the problem. I cannot use "make translucent" because it says oxygen does not support it, so I could not test that. So try changing the settings first before messing with the config file.
(this copied from bug 155574) Thanks Todd for the hint! I just tried to enable those settings (KDE 4.0.x (SUSE) and on trunk), but still cannot reproduce this issue. Is this problem fixed for other subscribers of this bug?
Created attachment 25715 [details] Crash from Dolphin when drag-n-drop into a folder
I get this too, running 4.0.83 from Fedora Rawhide, x86_64. Happens on a local ext3 filesystem as well as mounted smb filesystems. As suggested, it only happens when EffectAnimateMenu is set to true, if I set to false then it's fine. With it set to true when you drop the file into the folder the menu animates into existence, the mouse pointer gets the 'no entry' icon - circle with a line through it, and the menu items do not highlight as you roll over them. If at this point you move the pointer off the menu and onto the dolphin window behind it and click, it crashes. If you click on the menu the mouse pointer goes back to normal - i.e. loses the 'no entry' icon - then the menu items highlight as you roll over them. Click anywhere (menu item or dolphin window) and it crashes. 100% reproducible, stacktrace attached (above). Is 157630 a duplicate of this bug?
@Neil: This seems to be a Qt-issue and I've reported a bug-report already (http://trolltech.com/developer/task-tracker/index_html?id=206637&method=entry). I did a workaround for KDE 4.1, so I'm wondering that it still appears in 4.0.83...
