Description Bengt Neiss 2008-09-11 09:00:51 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I am using twinview with dual monitors. The computer is a Thinkpad T61. At startup the external monitor has wrong resolution applied, usually 1152x864. When I use Nvidia X server settings and apply the new resolution (1920x1200) plasma crashes with a SIGSEGV signal. After a few seconds, it seems to correct itself, and the new resolution is applied as it should.
The error log is as follows:

Program: Plasma arbetsyta (plasma), signal SIGSEGV

Comment 2 Riccardo Iaconelli 2008-11-18 10:14:19 UTC

no answer, and previous comments make plausible to assume that this bug has been fixed.
