Description Ivan Lakhturov 2009-03-11 16:54:27 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.1)
Compiler:          gcc-4.3.3 -march=amdfam10 -O3
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I have nvidia drivers 180.37, xorg.conf contains "RandRRotation true".

Steps to reproduce a crash:
1. In KDE fire a command "xrandr -o left".
2. From the portrait mode logout to console.
3. "startx" back.
4. A Fatal Error Occurred
The application Plasma Workspace (plasma) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV).

All subsequent logins to KDE reproduce crash until I clean the ~/.kde4 directory.

I don't want to recompile without optimizations, so, will not post a backtrace, but I think, this should be reproducible.

This may be related to bug 185741 (fixed in 4.2.2/4.3). A workaround is on bug 185741 comment 3, however some distros are planning on backporting the fix.
Thanks for reporting

I updated some KDE packages (I'm using the testing branch of Gentoo) and the bug is gone. I'm still on 4.2.1, however.
