Application that crashed: kcmshell4 Version of the application: KDE Version: 4.2.95 (KDE 4.2.95 (KDE 4.3 RC1)) Qt Version: 4.5.0 Operating System: Linux 2.6.30-9-generic i686 Distribution: Ubuntu 9.04 What I was doing when the application crashed: I tried it several times after and it worked fine then. Maybe it was some issue that kbuildsycoca had to be run/updated for my root user first? -- Backtrace: Application: KDE Control Module (kcmshell4), signal: Segmentation fault [KCrash Handler] #6 QDataStream::operator>> (this=0x0, i=@0xbfa124e8) at io/qdatastream.cpp:656 #7 0x00af9b0b in KServiceFactory (this=0x8ca6c78) at /build/buildd/kde4libs-4.2.95/kdecore/services/kservicefactory.cpp:44 #8 0x00af9e1c in KServiceFactory::self () at /build/buildd/kde4libs-4.2.95/kdecore/sycoca/ksycocafactory.h:200 #9 0x00aefbff in KService::serviceByMenuId (_name=@0xbfa125f8) at /build/buildd/kde4libs-4.2.95/kdecore/services/kservice.cpp:600 #10 0x00af636f in KService::serviceByStorageId (_storageId=@0xbfa125f8) at /build/buildd/kde4libs-4.2.95/kdecore/services/kservice.cpp:605 #11 0x00c7f1cf in locateModule (module=@0xbfa127c0) at /build/buildd/kdebase-runtime-4.2.95/kcmshell/main.cpp:73 #12 0x00c80783 in kdemain (_argc=2, _argv=0xbfa12ab4) at /build/buildd/kdebase-runtime-4.2.95/kcmshell/main.cpp:224 #13 0x08048642 in main (argc=2147483643, argv=0x4b7170) at /build/buildd/kdebase-runtime-4.2.95/obj-i486-linux-gnu/kcmshell/kcmshell4_dummy.cpp:3 Reported using DrKonqi
Looks like an installation issue. Does this happen only with the KDM module ? Thanks

Milian, your assumption may be right. You could try (re)moving all of /root/.kde, /var/tmp/kdecache-root, and /tmp/kde-root to reproduce the crash, so the problem may be related to bug 195726.
Now running with 4.3.0 and doing what you suggested I could not reproduce the crash.
