Description Dave Duchene 2004-12-12 01:25:22 UTC

Version:           1.4 (using KDE 3.3.1,  (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-2)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.8-1-k7

First noticed when I tried to drag-select some text while listening to music.  The music stopped while I was dragging.  I confirmed that this was because the CPU was maxed by examining the CPU activity with KSysGuard while selecting.  It spikes to 100% while dragging with the left button over the konsole.

More info needed; transparent schema?  What locale? Encoding? Is it constantly reproducible?

Comment 2 Dave Duchene 2005-02-08 03:07:43 UTC

It is constantly reproducible.  Opaque (white on black) schema, locale:

david@leda:~$ locale
LANG=POSIX
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=

I'm not sure how to get the encoding, but I haven't changed it from it's (english) default.

Does the problem still exist with KDE 3.5?  I was not able to reproduce the problem under KDE 3.5.4.

Comment 4 Robert Knight 2007-02-10 05:03:35 UTC

Closing due to lack of feedback.
