Version: (using Devel) Compiler: Adept Package Manager 2.0 Beta 4 OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources When starting my computer(Kubuntu 8.10 KDE 4.2 RC1) the desktop folder does not show icons, and when I pass my mouse over the folder view, plasma crashes instantly. Only the first boot with KDE 4.2 RC1 actually showed the icons. If it makes a difference, the programs loaded on start up are Firefox, Dolphin, Kate, and Amarok 2.
Update: I unlocked widgets(I had to right click the desktop, select unlock widgets, ctrl L was not working), and was able to fix the problem. If I resize my folder view, the icons will appear, and plasma does not crash. However, I had a folder with "(" as a name, which appears in Dolphin, but does not appear on the folder view. The folder was created by Amarok 2(sorting songs by artist name, name began with "(" ).
Do you have a valid backtrace? (with debug symbols)
and provide the name of the problematic folder so we can reproduce that as well. thanks.
I'm no Linux expert, but I believe this is what you mean Beat Wolf: Application: Plasma Workspace (plasma), signal SIGSEGV [Current thread is 0 (LWP 7795)] Thread 3 (Thread 0xa8e59b90 (LWP 7798)): #0 0xb7f97430 in __kernel_vsyscall () #1 0xb57ba075 in pthread_cond_wait@@GLIBC_2.3.2 () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0 #2 0xb63ce9ed in pthread_cond_wait () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 #3 0xb65b96f2 in QWaitCondition::wait () from /usr/lib/libQtCore.so.4 #4 0xb7939532 in ??

Just an open parenthesise. I know it's a stupid name, but it was created by Amarok because it was set to sort in folders by artist first letter, and in this case, the name of the band is (hed) pe.
ah, the whole name is '('. i figured there must be more to it. apparently not ;) ok.. great, and yes the backtrace provided is useful, thanks =)
confirming, my plasma also crashed on opening a folder view and trying to do sth with it, backtrace of Thread 1 looked very similar

ok, so here's what appears to be happening ... for whatever reason folderview isn't painting the icons. on hover, it asks for some information about its bounding rect that ends up going via KFileItemDelegate::Private::labelRectangle. that in turn asks for some margin information and that fails hard. the reason for this is that the activeMargins member is only set when sizeHint or paint is called; of course, if the item is never actually shown neither method is called on the KFileItemDelegate, meaning that activeMargins is never set, but it is accessed and we get this wonderful crash. so... we probably want to do two things with this report: * fix folderview so it paints things always ;) * make KFileItemDelegate a bit more robust against this scenario

Bug 188314 is reporting this crash on KDE4.2.1 . Shouldn't this be fixed yet or it's another issue ?

I'm not able to crash plasma hovering a directory called "(" on the plasma folder view. Is this bug still reproducible in some other ways?
it was fixed by the commit in comment #21, but frederikh only CCBUG:'d it :)
