Version: 4.2.1 (using KDE 4.2.0) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages After upgrading to KDE 4.2.1 this morning, plasma crashes when it is started. This happens every time I try and start plasma. I have tried removing my .kde folder and starting again, still get same crash. I have the following backtrace, not sure why it says the backtrace appears to be of no use though -: 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.

If you can reproduce the crash at will, may you read http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports and post a complete backtrace here? You need to install the "kdelibs5-dbg" and "kdebase-workspace-dbg" package. Thanks :)
Unfortunately I upgraded to Jaunty (Qt4.5) and the issue has gone away, someone suggested it may have been the version of Qt that was causing problems. There are others with the same issue on the ubuntu forums, I'll try and get one of them to provide a full backtrace and post it in here.
Thanks

This is already fixed :) Bug 185741 / bug 186324 / bug 186124 Look at bug 185741 comment 3 to get a workaround Thanks *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 185741 ***

@Darío Andrés: No, I believe is not. I tried to remove all ~/.kde/share/config/plasm* files but I still get crash on startup. I attached backtrace and output of "plasma 1>&2 2>plasma_error" command. Additionally I get a lot of "ERROR: syntax error" in console output which weren't, don't know why, redirected to plasma_error file.
I agree that this a completely different issue. I have another occurance and will try and get another backtrace tomorrow.
No problem. Just ensure to install the debug symbols package to get a complete backtrace. Thanks!

@noquisi waya: your crash may be unrelated to this: If you can reproduce the crash at will, may you read http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports and post a complete backtrace in a NEW report? Thanks :) By the way: why did you run plasma with SUDO ?
Hi, i uploaded a plasma backtrace. I couldnt find a dbg package for libQtCore ... is my report usefull? I need my System back tomorrow (evening) so i try a fresh install. If enybody need additional Infos, write what you need and i create them before. con
@Con: depending on your distribution the debug symbols for QtCore should be inside "libqt4-dbg" or "libqt4-debuginfo".

@Steven: if you check the backtraces, they are the same. So it's crashing in the same place. However I don't know why the workaround doesn't work for you. May be the trigger situation can be different (or there are some other factors that we aren't considering)
@Dario, the workaround mentions plasmarc, the user this is occuring under is a brand new user on the system and as such does not have an existing plasmarc file? Perhaps it hasn't been generated yet and plasma crashes before this is generated? Maybe the bug hits users without an existing .kde folder more than existing users with settings already in place? I can generate this bug whenever I want, let me know what you need :)
Hi, i had installed libqt4-dbg, before i uploaded my backtrace. I asked because "in ?? () from /usr/lib/libQtCore.so.4" seams to me, that not all debug symbols are loaded?! I tested in following steps (everytime backup & restore .kde/): a) my normal account with ./kde b) i removed ~/.kde/share/config/plasm* c) i edited ~/.kde/share/config/plasmarc-appletrc && plasmarc and changed all wrong resolutions to my real resolution d) i created a brand new user after all ... the same crash every time (backtrace uploaded). Con
Still can't get plasma to load, tried all the workarounds in 185741 and nothing, I haven't even got most the files it mentions, this is getting very annoying now!

@Morgan: the fix is already in KDE4.2.2branch and KDE4.3trunk, however, it seems that some distributions are backporting the patch to the 4.2.1stable release. Thanks
@Dario: please remember to close bugs that are fixed in svn :)
