Description Marko Dimjasevic 2010-09-10 00:29:16 UTC
Version:           unspecified
OS:                Linux

OS: Chakra
Linux: 2.6.35-ARCH
KDE SC: 4.5.1
Kate: 3.5.1

(It would help if field values in report form page were up to date so bug reporters don't have to type in this info manually.)

After KWin crash (which I can't report because there is no way to do it since windows/apps become titlebar-less and I can't do alt+tab), I have to reset X by force (ctrl+alt+backspace) which resets KDE environment session. If there had been Kate opened before KWin crash happened, Kate will reload in new KDE environment session, but with two windows - one with documents that were loaded before crash, and one with no documents and with no text area where empty document contents should have been shown. You can see what it looks like in attached screenshot.

Reproducible: Sometimes



Expected Results:  
Not open additional window.

No idea how that can happen and can't reproduce such stuff with KDE 4.6/7.
