Description S. Burmeister 2005-07-20 00:49:19 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

I have kicker crashing quite often when quitting the KDE session. Most of the times drkonqi is shown, without any window-decoration though. I have to close drkonqi in order to continue shutting down KDE.

Sometimes it seems that drkonqi is hidden, as the process is running but the window not shown. For users not familiar with the console and switching to one, it seems that KDE hangs, although it just waits for drkonqi to be closed.

I have to killall drkonqi in order to proceed with the shutting down.

Expected behaviour would be to always show the drkonqi-window in order for the user to quit it.

"without any window decoration" -> kwin has exited already

This means we can't raise drkonqi to the top, since the WM has quit already.

Even when on top, the decoration is missing. Since there is nothing else but a 
blank screen, what should cover drkonqi?

Could one wait for drkonqi before exiting kwin?

Does the problem still exist? What processes are running at that time? Can you start a new application in the same X session (from text console and setting $DISPLAY)?

Waiting for a response.
