Version: (using KDE 4.3.1) OS: Linux Installed from: Gentoo Packages While typing something in the minicli, it suddenly disappears (last time it happened, I had typed "leo:" and a few more letters). Then it can not be started again with Alt+F2. Neither is it possible to log out with Ctrl+Alt+Delete. To work around this problem, I have to go to the K-menu, log out from there, log in again (and restore all applications). This is obviously very inconvenient.
Sounds like KRunner is crashing. Would you be able to get a backtrace of the crash? (http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports#Backtraces)

It does not crash when typing "leo:" and a few more letters. So it seems to be fixed.
