Description atlas 2008-06-23 18:23:47 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.0.5)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
OS:                Linux

When KDE 4 start-up and I try to start an application (i.e. to open a terminal), sometimes the system (KDE) freezes. I have to press Alt-Ctrl-Backspace to restart the X-server and to login again. This crash does not happen if I wait a sufficient amount of time, (i.e. more than a minute), which, however, is quite annoying.

How do you start the app? with krunner, using kickoff or with links from the desktop? Are you using desktop effects?

Comment 2 atlas 2008-06-24 21:17:18 UTC

I'm not using any Desktop effects at all! I start the apps using links from the panel. I'll try krunner the next time to see if this makes any difference.

I updated yesterday to kdelibs-4.0.5-2 and it seems that the problem has been fixed!

Ok, thanks atlas for your feedback!
