plasma-desktop (0.4) on KDE Platform 4.7.1 (4.7.1) "release 12" using Qt 4.7.4

- What I was doing when the application crashed:  Reinstalled KDE 4.6 from openSUSE repos, and desktop apparently crashed (blackness....) w/o notification.  Re-installed KDE 4.7, and can log in as root w/o problem.  However, problem persists on my user account (this is a personal desktop system, so logging is as a user is kind of a big deal to me).  So something in one of my config files is likely causing the segfault.  Sorry.  

I promise I wasn't drinking *much* when I last changed system settings or updated files.

Any clue how to fix would be great, and something needs to be done from letting a config change on part of end user causing a segfault. :)

Comment 14 Kevin Coonan 2011-09-06 17:15:38 UTC
I renamed my .kde4 directory and things start fine.  Please let me know if 
there are any config files which would help debugging.

Uhuh... I installed that yesterday, so it would seem like a good idea for me to remove it now.

How do I do that please when plasma crashes on login and I have no taskbar to interact with?

thanks Colin (bug: 294433)
Comment 23 colin 2012-02-06 14:06:27 UTC
Sorry - I don't see any obvious way to fix the typo in my recent comment?

I posted bug 293433 which got marked as a duplicate of this.

plasma-desktop (4.12.2) on KDE Platform 4.12.90 using Qt 4.8.6

- What I was doing when the application crashed:

Started Kubuntu 14.04 after plasma-desktop had crashed.
Plasma crashes immediately upon login.

Renamed /usr/lib/kde4/plasma_applet_worldclock.so to /usr/lib/kde4/plasma_applet_worldclock.so.BAKUP (because i don't know how to uninstall applets from the commandline) and this allowed me to start plasma.

Comment 29 Friedrich W. H. Kossebau 2016-12-17 19:22:09 UTC
Thanks for the report. The Plasma worldclock widget has been rewritten now in QML for Plasma5 (and lacking some of the old features still).
The old code is no longer maintained, so closing this now.

Please try the new widget and report any issues or features you would like to see (re-)implemented.
