Version: 0.1 (using 4.00.67 (KDE 4.0.67 >= 20080325), compiled sources) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-12-386 Plasma simply crashes after logging on. I am using Ubuntu 8.04 and kdesvn-build script to build KDE from my own. The crash comes when I check out and rebuild after Easter, and this does not happen to 4.0.66. Have tried to clean the build system and rebuild but have no avail. Here is the backtrace: Application: Plasma Workspace (plasma), signal SIGSEGV Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libthread_db.so.1".

please ensure that all your applets have been rebuilt. there are BIC changes occuring in libplasma leading up to 4.1.
I can confirm this bug, after a complete reconfigure nothing changes.
Still getting the similar backtrace after a complete rebuild. Will try few days later if the changes are settled.

seriously, move your plasma-appletrc's somewhere and start plasma. i'll bet it starts just fine, and that you have some code from extragear, playground, etc that you haven't rebuilt loading up.
Recompiled from scratch, and removed plasmarc/plasma-appletrc works. Thanks Aaron for the help.
