Version: (using KDE 4.1.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Mandriva RPMs After a fresh start of the machine and login with my user name, I can see that some plasmoid have disappeared and among them the mandriva launcher menu. After reinstall of the plasmoid, switching this menu to classic style and trying to open an application from menu list causes the plasma crash. This often happen. My machine is pentium double core.

Hi, you should precise what plasmoid made the crash and also install the debug packages from Mandriva in order to get a good backtrace of the crash. Your backtrace indicates plasma_applet_mandrivalauncher.so which, if this is the cause, is a Mandriva product and not a KDE one. Thanks in advance for more information, Anne-Marie
Same situation after a freh restart of the machine. This time the Menu plasmoid was still there. Trying to use the menu list to open an internet application caused a plasma crashed and caused the signal 6 Application : Espace de travail Plasma (plasma), signal SIGABRT (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread 0x7f2647596700 (LWP 8650)] [New Thread 0x416f9950 (LWP 8658)] [New Thread 0x40ef8950 (LWP 8657)] (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) [KCrash handler] #5 0x00007f2646e4e975 in raise () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #6 0x00007f2646e501a3 in abort () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #7 0x00007f2646e91010 in ??

Please refer to http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports to see how to create a more useful backtrace. It still seems that Mandriva menu is the culprit.
yes, this is a known problem with Mandriva's custom menu widget. annma: i even have this one bookmarked so i can refer to it easily ;) http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172670 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 172670 ***
