Description chkno 2005-03-02 23:29:58 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.3.4 CFLAGS="-march=athlon-mp -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe"
OS:                Linux

Note that this is only exploitable when korganizer is running under a window manager that don't enforce modality.  Step 4 isn't usually possible under the KDE default window manager.  This might still be an issue if the user is running remote X and/or double-clicks quickly.

Steps to reproduce:
0) Start Korganizer under a WM that doesn't enforce modality (eg: ratpoison).
1) Load two calendar resources.
2) Bring up the Create Event dialog.
3) Press OK on the Create Event dialog.
   The "Resouces" / select-which-calendar dialog will appear.
4) Press OK on the Create Event dialog again (underneath
   the select-which-calendar dialog).
5) Select one of the available calendars.
6) Korganizer/Kontact crashes.

Reassigning all KOrganizer bug reports and wishes to the newly created 
korganizer-devel mailing list.
Comment 2 chkno 2006-11-02 22:14:20 UTC 
Update: still problematic in 3.5.2.
Comment 3 Christophe Marin 2008-11-02 14:40:03 UTC 
Do you experience this crash with a recent KDE/KOrganizer/Kontact ? (> KDE4.1)
Comment 4 Gavin Pryke 2009-01-12 15:59:11 UTC 
Using trunk KDE built with kdesvn-build on Gentoo Linux (gcc-4.1.2)
kdepim rev 909691
ratpoison 1.4.3

I have tried several times to reproduce this with korganizer and in kontact under a ratpoison session, I can not seem to trigger a crash.
Also tried under korganizer 3.5.9.

Let's close then. Thank you.
