Version: (using Devel) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources Hi, backtrace below. It happened as my laptop had been undergoing 100% cpu usage for a while as i was running a scientific simulation -- maybe that's relevant as the backtrace mentions stuff about timers.

What is your KDE version (svn revision/branch) ?, 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? This is probably related to bug 190218 / bug 175632 Thanks
My KDE version is 4.2.71.svn961800. Unfortunately, I can't reproduce at will.
