> [?1034h(no debugging symbols found) Backtraces with "no debugging symbols found" are useless. Please install the debug-packages provided by your distro or compile KDE with debug enabled.
hey, I have kdebase 4 debug installed, is there something else I am meant to have?
did some searching, the reason no debug symbols were found is because they aren't available yet for opensuse.
hi R.J. they are availablefor OpenSuse :) Please just install kdebase-dbg rather then kdebase. Is this btw still reproducable for you with KDE 4.0.2?
could be a case of bad $HOME/.kde and $HOME/.kde4 folders. Try to remove them, reboot and then try to get the crash happening. Perhaps you installed kde 4 over kde 3.5.x config files ? I´m unable to get the crash in KDE 4.0.2 myself.
With 4.1 just around the corner, it's time to close off 4.0 bugs. If you get similar crashes with 4.1 please open a new bug with a full backtrace.
