Unfortunately, there's not enough information to tell where the issue is. It looks like a stale pointer, but there's no way to tell where that stale pointer came from. Are you able to reproduce at all? Can you supply any other information as to what you were doing or what else was/is happening in the system at the time?
Comment 2 Stephen 2008-01-02 12:49:46 UTC
I am unable to reproduce this at all unfortunately. I can't even
describe it in words because of that hend the "random crash"

I had a lot of windows open, both QT 4, and gtk based, and i clicked
the pager applet (clicked the current desktop on it) and it crashed
plasma.

thats all i can say and I can't reproduce it either.

works for me too, and the bt isn't overly helpful in determining if that's a legitimate fix. so ... not enough info, but seems to be working at this point rather nicely. esp as there are no dupes at this time =)
