Bug 269773

Application: plasma-desktop (0.3)
KDE Platform Version: 4.5.1 (KDE 4.5.1)
Qt Version: 4.7.0
Operating System: Linux 2.6.35-28-generic x86_64
Distribution: Ubuntu 10.10

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
i was watching the output of htop in the konsole.
plasma-desktop suddenly jumped to 99% cpu, stayed like that for 30 seconds and then crashed.
no mouse movment.

- Unusual behavior I noticed:
machine had become slow due to lack of cpu, several times in the previous 5 mins, so i was checking htop to see what was hogging the CPU.

The crash can be reproduced some of the time.

-- Backtrace:
Application: Plasma Workspace (plasma-desktop), signal: Segmentation fault
