Description pete_herworth 2010-11-19 20:48:55 UTC
Version:           2.0.1 (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

In kde4.6 (latest SVN) k3b will not open unless there is a disk in the optical drive. It appears to be opening but then a crash screen opens instead. This is not a major problem of course but not normal behaviour previously.
It does open if the disk is inserted first.
I suspect it is a KDE problem as I am using the same K3b which works as expected in openSuse 11.3 with KDE 4.5.3 if you forget the disk first.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Click in menu icon, desktop icon or use terminal.

Actual Results:  
as above - crashes unless disk present.

I see the same behaviour on openSUSE 11.3 with KDE 4.5.80 (4.6 Beta 1) installed. On startup I get the following messages. My assumption is that this might be a problem with dbus. 

myuser@mymachine:~> k3b
KGlobal::locale::Warning your global KLocale is being recreated with a valid main component instead of a fake component, this usually means you tried to call i18n related functions before your main component was created. You should not do that since it most likely will not work

kde(15722): Communication problem with  "k3b" , it probably crashed. 
Error message was:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply" : " "Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)" "

If a media is in my DVD drive I don't get this problem as stated in the initial bug report. Startup messages are then

Comment 2 Jaime Torres 2010-11-27 17:10:50 UTC
probably, a duplicate of bug 249371.
Comment 3 Javier Llorente 2010-11-27 18:22:38 UTC
I don't see the same behaviour here on a VirtualBox machine (openSUSE 11.4 milestone 4, Qt 4.7.1, KDE 4.5.80); K3b doesn't crash if there's no CD/DVD present.
Comment 4 Andyfloe 2010-11-28 18:31:31 UTC
Problem is solved with rpm k3b-2.0.1-44.1.x86_64 on openSUSE 11.3.

There is no backtrace here. When you get the crash, you should get the KDE  crash dialog and the backtrace can be seen from there.
