dolphin was NOT loaded at that time > The board under to switch apps, was disappeard in the morning, a few hours earlier That sounds as if plasma-desktop crashed as well. The particular crash in KWin occurred in the oxygen decoration on accessing a QCache - this is different from bug #301234 but leads to the same results/tail. => Can you check when the Qt libraries were last updated? (ie. "did you update the system during that session?") D'OHH! "Crash of kwin 4.11.11 after upgrade" Sorry Hugo =) That's a ubuntu bug. They trunk files instead of correctly installing them (I cannot prove, but since this happens ALL THE TIME and for about every application, this is actually the only possible answer) ie. the Qt library inodes are junk and if symbols are reloaded from disk, things go south. => Do not update Ubuntut from a GUI session, instead "telinit 1" (move to runlevel 1, a root shell) or at least reboot as soon as the update is complete - otherwise be prepared for random crashes in anything that uses shared libraries. |
