Version: (using KDE 3.5.9) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages Kdesktop crashes at KDE startup. Not always, but quite high probability. Seen several times, definitely reproduceable. Contents of ~/.kde/Autostart are not run, I haven't found any other consequences, everything else seems normal after closing the crash report window.
Created attachment 26957 [details] kcrash From the backtrace, the problem seems wallpaper-related.
Please paste backtraces rather than attaching them.

Kdesktop is no more mantained. Fortunatly this bug seems not to be valid for KDE 4. Please reopen if this bug is not a kdesktop one (and it is not solved) or it can be reproduced on KDE 4. Thanks.
