Description Steven Vollom 2010-03-15 01:55:57 UTC
Version:           kde 4.3.2 (using KDE 4.3.2)
Compiler:          Sorry I don't know 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    I Don't Know

The following is an attempt to trace.  I tried to get debugging installed that would help.  In this case, I entered lib/libkhtml and libQtCore in both KpackageKit and Syaptic Package Manager looking for debugging applications without success.  I also attempted including the .so.5 and the .so.4 respectively, but then nothing came up.  Otherwise I got applications for installation.  The reason I included shockwave is because it was mentioned somewhere when I was trying to fix this problem.  Karmic is updated current.  I will wait to hear from you before I attempt to upgrade to the latest kde.  I am somewhat inexperienced.  Thanks.  Hope this is useful.

Recently, each time I tried to open anything on the Internet, I would get a request to install flash and was sent to an adobe site.

Comment 1 Steven Vollom 2010-03-15 01:58:09 UTC
Kubuntu Karmic RC KDE 4.3.2
Comment 2 Dario Andres 2010-03-15 13:09:38 UTC
Please install the "kdelibs5-dbg" and "libqt4-dbg"; try to reproduce the bug and paste here a new backtrace.
- Is the crash always reproducible for you ?
Regards
Comment 3 Steven Vollom 2010-03-15 22:37:29 UTC
I installed kdelibs5-dbg and libqt4-dbg before sending the last report.  Occasionally utube or a network tv site will work, however mostly I get a request for the flash plugin, which is already installed as confirmed when I attempt to install the Plugin.

I am sorry, I am having trouble duplicating the problem.  Usually when I attempt to play flash, it says I need to download the newest version.  When I try to do that, the computer says it is already installed.  As a consequence, I am unable to view the file I want to view.  Occasionally, When I click on a video, a crash is caused.  That is what happened when the crash report was created.  Too much time has lapsed for me to remember what the item I wanted to view was, so I will just have to wait for it to happen again.  In any event I am unable to play any shockwave or adobe flash programs.

Before I sent the bug report, I read the instructions on how to send a better report.  It suggested installing debug applications for those Items with ??.  There was a third item that was repaired, but I don't remember what it was now.  I was relying on the printed data I sent you.  I will be more careful and take detailed notes next time.  I guess I will just have to wait for it to happen again.  Thanks for your patience.  I won't make this mistake again.

I want to reiterate, one of the items was apparently fixed; the remaining two stayed the same after the debuggers was installed.
