Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.1) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux while shutting down the system with an open kdvi-window, a crash-info about kdvi(sigsev)is shown and the system waits for an action. The shutdown stops. No need for this. Sometimes the system keeps running unnoticed.
Yes, there really is no need for a crash :-) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 122961 ***
Wollte sagen, es macht keinen Sinn, das Herunterfahren zu stoppen und eine Bestätigung zu fordern für eine Crashmeldung die eh' nicht mehr interessiert. mbe Am Samstag, den 26.08.2006, 09:06 +0000 schrieb Wilfried Huss: [bugs.kde.org quoted mail]
Here is the debugging info of the same crash I see when kdvi is shut down. In my version of KDE, this bug is not resolved! And I agree with Matthias: Crash reports on shutdown, which stop the shutdown process are useless. After the error message the computer should shut down after a while. Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/libthread_db.so.1". `system-supplied DSO at 0xffffe000' has disappeared; keeping its symbols.

The crash reporting is not done by KDVI itself, so we have no control over it anyway. This is done by drkonqi in kdelibs. And I do not share your opinion that crash reporting during shutdown is uninteresting, because a crash might result in lost data. The issue that drkonqi blocks the shutdown process is aleady reported in bug 126073. Anyway this particual crash should be finally fixed now. See bug 122961. Greetings, Wilfried Huss
