What kdelibs revision it it? Can you reproduce with download "New Wallpapers..."? Or any other KNS dialog? Thanks in advance!
Created attachment 25177 [details] backtrace The backtrace I catched while trying to reproduce it. It happened with the systemsettings=>splash screen=>GHNS option and therefore seems to be a GHNS bug rather then plasma one.
@ Shrikant But to be sure that it's really the same issue, could you please install the kdelibs debug-packages like explained at http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports and provide a more useful backtrace? Thanks in advance :) p.s. change product from Plasma to kdelibs cause GHNS is in there?!
Assigning to kdelibs/KNS

Bug 164171 is closer to initial backtrace than Sebastian bt. Shrikant Khare can you provide a better backtrace with installing debug packages please? Thanks!

I removed the plasma-theme-aya package from YaST Software Management (KDE:/UNSTABLE openSUSE 10.3 repository) and KHNS/plasma stopped crashing since; although it still slows the system down to a crawl with all the simultaneous http requests. I have since switched to openSUSE 11.0 RC1 and compiled KDE4 from svn trunk. I should now be able to provide better backtraces. Sorry for not being much help in this case. Should I mark this bug as RESOLVED?
Does not crash anymore...... Look at my previous comment for more info Thanks

In KDE 4.1 beta 2 I still get a similar issue. When opening GHNS in plasma, everything seams to be blocked when the downloading of previews starts. I haven't seen a crash dialog somewhere unfortunately. What happens afterwards: - plasma remains blocked - restarting plasma gives errors, it can't contact KLauncher. - any app trying to start something (e.g. the bug reporter) blocks for a few seconds until it times out with the same error about klauncher. (are these dbus calls synchronous?)
Additional note, in `top` there aren't any processes hung at 100% or something like it.
