Description Miles Wu 2004-08-06 09:44:02 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.92)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          GCC 3.3.3 Gentoo Emerge/Portage
OS:                Linux

KDE 3.3 Beta 2 compiled with Gentoo Emerge.

Compiled fine, everything works except Konsole. 

When run in KDE it says "KDEInit could not launch 'konsole'"

When run in a terminal, it says "konsole
Segmentation fault"

I heard from other people, that this Konsole crash is probably due to me running X.org not XFree86:

Comment 1 Stephan Kulow 2004-08-06 10:48:59 UTC

well, recompile with debug and report it at bugs.gentoo.org - you're obviously using beta software on beta software, so you really shouldn't expect stable behaviour and compile with debug option, so you can help fixing problems.

Comment 2 Miles Wu 2004-08-06 12:00:46 UTC

I agree, i don't expect stable behavoir, nor for it to be perfect. I was 
merely reporting the bug so a developer could fix before the final 
release. 
 
And it is not only me with the problem on gentoo. 
 
Also debug data exists:

New debug info

Comment 4 Kurt Hindenburg 2004-08-06 17:57:47 UTC

I've been running KDE CVS with X-org for months w/o problems (on Gentoo).

xorg-x11-6.7.0-r1
gcc version 3.3.3 20040412 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.3-r6, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6)

Comment 5 Stephan Binner 2004-09-19 11:33:47 UTC

Does it still happen with KDE 3.3?

Comment 6 Kurt Hindenburg 2005-02-07 01:17:51 UTC

I would say the reporter system is mis-configured.  Perhaps he is using too aggressive CFLAGS when compiling.  I've been running Gentoo with the stable xorg-x11 and KDE3.3.x (and HEAD) without any problems.

Comment 7 Miles Wu 2005-02-07 09:39:02 UTC

It is now fine. As soon as 3.3 was released properly it has worked fine. However it seems to be nothing to do with CFLAGS as aggressive or non-aggressive konsole works fine now.
