Übrigens habe ich dieses Verhalten schon in der 3.3 beta 2 festgestellt. Wohin gegen die 3.2.3 und davor ohne dieses Problem daher gekommen sind.

In short and in English: Kicker crashes often without apparent reason. It did not happen with KDE 3.2.3 but has happened since KDE 3.3 beta 2.

Same here

Just downloaded the SuSE RPMs and I have the same problem, both with my KDE 3.2.3 settings and with fresh settings (~/.kde renamed to ~/.kde.old)...

Maybe, just maybe this is a duplicate of bug 87484

It could be that it's not kicker itself that was crashing. Do you use any 'dangerous' applets? (like kickerpager, for example?)

My applets in Kicker are:
KAMix 0.0.7,
SuSE Watcher,
SuSE Plugger,
KWallet,
amarok or juk,
Kopete and
KMail.

Here another output to the problem:

does this problem persist with 3.3.1 for any of those reporting this problem?

i will test it next month with new SuSe 9.2

thank you for being willing to re-check this. if kicker does continue to crash, can you please post your `kde-config --localprefx`/share/config/kickerrc file? thanks...

After over one week working with kde 3.3.1 on SuSE 9.2 seems the bug is resolved. I will reopen the bug-report if it does continue to crash in the next weeks.

It craches again, with 3.3.1 on SuSE Linux x86.
After crash Kicker restarts correctly.

Sebastian

can either Sebastian or Thomas describe what actions / behaviour leads to this issue? thanks.

*** Bug 94695 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I've had an occasional kicker crashes as well, using gentoo/amd64, kde 3.4.0 The latest crash occured the moment I hit the ok button after filling in my password in order to send a mail (kmail, not using kwallet for kmail). Kicker restarted fine.

Today, it happened again when I closed kmail.
Closing kmail leads to an additional tray icon AND is something I do quite often during work.

Maybe this information is a useful hint.
