Description Andrew Manson 2009-02-11 10:06:02 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

ok this is a strange bug... i have a back trace so you guys can see if what i think happend actually happened. 

I installed KPhotoAlbum, which i think is using KDE3 libraries, and as soon as i turned it on Plasma crashed. When plasma reloaded it had some of the widgets with "Unable to load widget", namely the Countdown timer widget and the show dashboard widget. 

backtrace is below:

If you can reproduce the crash at will, may you read http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports and post a complete backtrace here? 
You need to install the "kdebase-workspace-dbg" package
Thanks :)
