Version: unknown (using 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0) "release 102", KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop / openSUSE_11.0) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.25.20-0.1-pae KWin crashed with signal 11 (SIGSEGV). This is an intermittent occurrence and I have yet to find any way of forcing it to occur and so am unable to provide a list of packages running etc. I've attempted to get a backtrace but I get a message that it's of no use but I enclose it below in case it's of some help anyway. I have searched the openSUSE repos for a kwin debuginfo package but I can't find one. I'm also adding part of the .xsession-errors file in case that's of some use plus /var/log/messages. I do have a list of ps auwx of user processes taken immediately after the crash if you want a copy of that, let me know OpenSUSE 11.0, KDE4 (Factory) up to date as of 3-Mar-2009 Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce 6800 with nvidia drivers version 180-29 <snip> This backtrace appears to be of no use. This is probably because your packages are built in a way which prevents creation of proper backtraces, or the stack frame was seriously corrupted in the crash.

Please install the "kdebase4-workspace-debuginfo" package in order to obtain a more useful backtrace. Thanks.
Ah - that's where the debuginfo is - will do.
Thanks
