Description Jukka Hellen 2005-02-28 01:12:43 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package
OS:                Linux

Can't tell what this is about but it happened a couple of times with my kooka. The problem is gone for now but I just wanted to report it. I started kooka via the console and then it crashed and gave me this:

I'm having the same problem. Start Kooka, and it crashes. When starting from console, I get:

[alex@fergus povray-3.6]$ kooka
QLayout: Adding QComboBox/PREVIEWFORMATCOMBO (child of QVButtonGroup/unnamed) to layout for Previewer/unnamed
libkscan: WARNING: Trying to copy a not healthy option (no name nor desc)
libkscan: WARNING: Trying to copy a not healthy option (no name nor desc)
QObject::connect: Cannot connect (null)::guiChange(KScanOption*) to ScanParams::slOptionNotify(KScanOption*)
KCrash: Application 'kooka' crashing...
[alex@fergus povray-3.6]$            

Was installed from Mandrake 10.2 (2005 LE) RPMs, scanner is a Canon FB330P parallell port unit. It has always worked fine previously, seems to have only started crashing since the new version.

Note however, it may not be entirely Kooka's fault. Xsane crashes as well, but with different messages. I haven't ried using the sacnner from within teh Gimp yet, possibly later.

On the face of things, it appears that there may be a regression of some type.

Please check whether this is still a problem with a recent version of KDE, for example 3.5.8 (unfortunately no Kooka in 4.0).

No further information received, no backtrace. 
Please reopen the bug if the problem is still happening and can be reproduced.
