(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kdat Version: 2.0.1 (using KDE 3.0.0 ) Severity: normal Installed from: SuSE Compiler: gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.10-4GB OS/Compiler notes: I loaded a tape in the drive with probably was unreadable: the 'dd -if' command on the tape gave a 'Could not allocate memory'-error (mesaage originally in Dutch by the way). When I try to mount that tape with kdat it crashes with a 'segmentation fault'. The option 'Abort' says to give a dump but I could not find that. The following info I gathered from .xsession-errors' and KDE's backtrack: kdat: SIGSEGV signal ("Segmentation violation (ANSI)") caught kdat: SIGSEGV signal ("Segmentation violation (ANSI)") caught WARNING: KDE detected X Error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 8 Major opcode: 42 KCrash: crashing.... crashRecursionCounter = 2 KCrash: Application Name = kdat path = <unknown> pid = 9233cd 0x40fc9079 in ??

Is this bug still present/relevant in a recent KDE version, such as 3.5.8?
Surprising to see a comment to a bug report this age! I must say, I don't know at the moment. I don't have the tape-drive installed at the moment, even no scsi-controller present in the systems here. So I'm afraid I can't answer the question, and it would require some serious work to be able to answer it... So, if you really need the answer, I can see what I can do, but not very soon. BTW, I still run Suse, 10.3, KDE 3.5.7 at the moment. regards, Jogchum Reitsma
Almost as surprising to get such a quick response! I will list this bug on the bugsquad* pages as requiring special hardware (DAT drive with a faulty tape), and hopefully someone else with one already set up might be able to verify. * http://techbase.kde.org/Contribute/Bugsquad/Bugs_to_be_done#Bugs_needing_users_with_particular_setups
Added "needs_verification" tag, maybe someone can help us :)
Hmm, I think I should do that, as the OP. But, what I stated a year ago still holds I'm afraid. Even worse, since my mobo (MSI K8N Master2FAR) has some serious trouble, in that the PCI-expressbus doesn't work anymore, and the only pci-slot is occupied by the graphics card. So if someone has that motherboard for me.... ;-) Hope to find some time for it in the near future...
