Version: (using KDE 4.1.0) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages I have a dual boot system with WinXP Pro and Kubuntu (Intrepid). I use GRUB to log in automatically into Kubuntu. I started my normal bootup process and received the prompt to enter my username and password. After I enter my username and password, the default splash screen starts for KDE. It then freezes and I receive the message that Plasma Workspace crashed. I've tried to log in 6 times and each time I receive the same message. The application Plasma Workspace (plasma) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV). Please help us improve the software you use by filing a report at http://bugs.kde.org. Useful details include how to reproduce the Here is the backtrace: Application: Plasma Workspace (plasma), signal SIGSEGV (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread 0xb548f6c0 (LWP 6110)] [New Thread 0xb380eb90 (LWP 6112)] (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) [KCrash handler] #6 0xb711f414 in QGraphicsLinearLayout::setSpacing () from /usr/lib/libQtGui.so.4 #7 0xb3832368 in ??

@Javier: your KDE version is too old: try at least using 4.1.4 or 4.2. This bug should be a packaging bug (Ubuntu fault) Please, reopen this bug report if you experience this again with a recent KDE version
