I can't say much other than that I can't seem to start dolphin anymore. Don't know how to trigger this. Reboot solves it.

Thanks for the bug report. Please do not attach backtraces but paste them inline (see below) because that makes looking for duplicates easier for us.

Does a reboot solve the problem forever for you, or does it return at some point?

It might be a duplicate of bug 169103. Could you
provide the contents of your dolphinrc file (probably located at
~/.kde4/share/config/dolphinrc) to be sure? If I'm right, deleting that file
should solve the problem.

Comment 3 Hans Überacher 2008-10-13 22:02:44 UTC
Hi, thanks for your help. I'll remember pasting backtraces inline for next time.

The error survived a reboot the last time I tried. Removing dolphinrc really did it for me, so it might be a duplicate. At any rate, I'm confident I never moved either one of the panels out of the main window before (as the instructions for triggering the crash in the comments there go). Although when I do now, dolphin does crash on the next startup, as predicted.


Here's the content of dolphinrc before the removal:

Hans, thanks for the update! I verified that I get exactly the same backtrace both when running Dolphin with your dolphinrc file and when moving panels out of the window and restarting. Therefore, I'm pretty sure it's a duplicate. You're probably right, though: There seems to be more than one way to get the dolphinrc into a state that crashes Dolphin on startup.
