Version: OpenSuse 11.1 (i586), KDE 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1) "release 163" (using KDE 4.3.1) OS: Linux Installed from: SuSE RPMs After todays update of some packages from OpenSuse 11.1 to my KDE 4.3.1 (V163) system, plasma crashes each time directly after logging into my User Account (root still works, though). All attempts to restart plasma-desktop via krunner (which still works) fail and produce crashes with kcrash-report which I add. I hope this is helpfull, since I don't have enough room for devel-packages on my laptop. Since I can't access some of my important work-files now, I would be gratefull for al fast solution ... Thanks a lot, Jay
Created attachment 36837 [details] kacrash-report I get when plasma crashes ...
It would help if you installed kdebase4-workspace-debuginfo (145Mb too much for your laptop) and repeated the crash. To get your desktop back in a hurry, outside KDE: mv ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc.bad mv ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktoprc ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktoprc.bad should get you a vanilla Plasma back. Then don't add the google gadget causing the crash.
okay, I have, at least temporarily added the debuginfo-package and tried to relogin to my user account 2 two times (one without and second after a restart) and will add both kcrash-reports here. Hope they will help fixing the bug. hope I can't reproduce the crash then, after changing the config-file ... Thanky for your help, Jay

Okay ... to get back my plasma desktop working this was okay, but now there is a follow-up to this ... since yesterday, without any special changes (no new istallations or else) xorg and plasma started to eat up constantly at least 70% (or more) of the cpu-time. this is very annoying, since it slows down my system significantly (single core pentium-m cpu 1.7 GHz) and also leaves the fans running like mad. And still: this only seems to happen under my user account, root still seems to be okay ... and it remains althoug there are no mor plasmoids, except trashbin and compositing is turned off!! Hardware: dell inspiron 9200, ati 9700, sorry, but this is not really funny ... Thanks for your help, jay

@Jay: about the Plasma CPU usage, what are the settings of your System Tray widget ? BTW, the GoogleGadgets crash is reported at bug 197754. Merging. Thanks *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 197754 ***
