New crash information added by DrKonqi

systemsettings (1.0) on KDE Platform 4.5.1 (KDE 4.5.1) using Qt 4.6.3

- What I was doing when the application crashed:

I opened System Settings window and clicked the Login Screen icon. Before the KDM configuration window appears, the whole System Settings app crashes.

This bug isn't specific to the KDM module, we are getting it with other modules that need root authentication.

Comment 10 Dario Freddi 2010-10-25 19:44:32 UTC

It looks like the about data of the module is a dangling pointer... will try and investigate.

Comment 13 Gökçen Eraslan 2010-11-02 15:43:16 UTC

It's easy to reproduce this:

1- Set KDE in _single click_ mode.
2- Open systemsettings
3- In systemsettings, _double click_ on any module using KAuth like kcmkdm or clock

systemsettings (1.0) on KDE Platform 4.5.2 (KDE 4.5.2) using Qt 4.7.0

- What I was doing when the application crashed:

open system settings,  click "date & time"  OR click "login screen", system settings crashes.  Clicking on any of the other items doesn't crash system settings.

systemsettings (1.0) on KDE Platform 4.5.2 (KDE 4.5.2) using Qt 4.7.0

- What I was doing when the application crashed:

I was running `sudo systemsettings` and clicked "Login Screen". I did this because last time I tried to install a new login screen theme it didn't work (installed thme was not listed) and I thought maybe I'd have already to be root for isntalling a new theme.

[Comment from a bug triager]
From bug 257796:
If I use "single-click to open files and folders" setting for my mouse and
double click on "Date & Time", systemsettings crashes. But if I use
"double-click to open files and folders" and double click on "Date & Time" it
works.

Comment 38 Tim Richardson 2011-01-28 13:09:04 UTC

This  bug has a subject line referring to authentication. However, many parts of systems settings that require authentication work just fine for me. The only problem is the login screen 'control panel'. I can authenticate to manage fonts and users just fine. And if I run kdesu systemsettings it still crashes on the login screen control panel. Nearly all the recent dup reports refer explicitly to login screen.

When can this become 'confirmed'? Is is unique to kubuntu?

Comment 39 Denis Prost 2011-01-28 13:21:45 UTC

No, same problem for me on Arch Linux.

Comment 40 Mathias Panzenböck 2011-01-28 13:31:11 UTC

My stack trace was from Fedora 14, so it's not unique to Kubuntu.

Comment 41 Dave Plater 2011-01-28 14:27:57 UTC

We can add my distro openSUSE 11.3 running kde 4.6.0 release,I've just updated and enabled auto login without a crash. The procedure is different you now enter your root password when you save your settings.
Pity no one told us it was fixed.

Comment 42 Dave Plater 2011-01-28 14:33:32 UTC

I just revisited my original bug 258315 and tried the phonon setting and wasn't even asked for authorization no crash but the openSUSE kde team have a habit of working around kde authorization bugs.

Comment 43 Dave Plater 2011-01-28 14:37:23 UTC

My original bug for comparison (4.6 Beta1 was a bumpy ride so far 4.6 release is as smooth as silk)
Application: systemsettings (1.0)
KDE Platform Version: 4.5.80 (4.6 Beta1)
Qt Version: 4.7.1
Operating System: Linux 2.6.34.7-0.5-desktop x86_64
Distribution: "openSUSE 11.3 (x86_64)"

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
My kde sound has stopped working and I was in system settings phonon, and AFAIR
the crash occurred when I checked the "Show advanced devices" checkbox due to
the fact that no devices were shown. I had to manually start kded in order to
login via the Crash Assistant and after starting System Settings again the
"Show advanced devices" checkbox is checked and my sound devices are visible
again.

Comment 46 Christoph Feck 2011-01-31 16:09:35 UTC

Bug 264955 shows that "KAuth::Polkit1Backend::actionExists" uses a local event loop (see bt #129 and #66), which can also cause a recursive invokation of modules.

Git commit f51be49c3867e9845ba07a7c1c1e54f371371146 by Ben Cooksley.
Committed on 25/02/2011 at 10:38.
Pushed by bcooksley into branch 'master'.

HACK
Prevent KAuth backends which use local event loops from crashing System Settings due to a double module load.
Will show the layouting and other initialisation of control modules to use though unfortunately.
Correct fix should ultimately be done in the KAuth backend by removing it's local event loop.

Git commit 474e6032270c25e27449a5ee88700c6558d9cd6d by Christoph Feck, on behalf of Ben Cooksley.
Committed on 25/02/2011 at 10:38.
Pushed by cfeck into branch 'KDE/4.6'.

HACK
Prevent KAuth backends which use local event loops from crashing System Settings due to a double module load.
Will show the layouting and other initialisation of control modules to use though unfortunately.
Correct fix should ultimately be done in the KAuth backend by removing it's local event loop.
CCBUG: 247830

Comment 78 Christoph Feck 2011-05-12 12:48:12 UTC

There is not much hope the authorization handling will change anytime soon, so we decided to backport the workaround.
