Version: (using KDE 4.0.3) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Hi, I am using the live-cd of Kubuntu KDE 4 remix. I face the same bug as reported in bug report 157553 with the "About Kubuntu" icon. I load from the CD, wait for the desktop to appear, hover over the icon an click the properties button. Then I click on the "Preview" tab, the window went white and Plasma restarts. This issue is reproduceable every single time. Please find below the backtrace: (no debugging symbols found) [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread 0xb637a940 (LWP 9661)] [New Thread 0xacf73b90 (LWP 9755)] [New Thread 0xad7b6b90 (LWP 9754)] [New Thread 0xae20fb90 (LWP 9751)] [New Thread 0xb4a8eb90 (LWP 9663)] (no debugging symbols found) 0xb7f91410 in __kernel_vsyscall () [Current thread is 0 (LWP 9661)] Thread 5 (Thread 0xb4a8eb90 (LWP 9663)): #0 0xb7f91410 in __kernel_vsyscall () #1 0xb7b5baa5 in pthread_cond_wait@@GLIBC_2.3.2 () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0 #2 0xb7f02cdd in pthread_cond_wait () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 #3 0xb7bab924 in QWaitCondition::wait () from /usr/lib/libQtCore.so.4 #4 0xb4c1b5b4 in ??

This actually happens with every single icon - not only with the "About Kubuntu" one.
this actually isn't a plasma bug; it's a kdelibs issue (plugins for file properties), and this particular crash would actually be a problem with one of the packages in your kubuntu install. =)
