Version:           2.5.1 (using KDE 3.5.1 Level "a" , SUSE 10.1)
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.16.13-4-default

This crash has now happened a couple of times under SuSE 10.1/kate 3.5.1/kde 3.5.1 level "a", arch: x86_64.

I have a couple of files open. One or more files are modified by an external program such as cervisia, e.g., after comiting a file to the cvs. 
Kate then dutifully opens a dialog box alerting that files have changed, I ask to reload the changed files, so far everything seems OK. Then, after some further editing, I save a file with Crtl-S and Kate crashes without saving that file. A small IO window showing a file transfer that never gets completed stays open and has to be closed manually.

This crash only happens after files have been modified externally, otherwise the "save" operation works OK. 

If I reopen kate it starts up with some old session information.

Hope this helps.

best wishes

Gerald
