Created attachment 54854 [details] Kcrash report Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.5.4) OS: Linux Boot system and login via KDM. plasma-desktop crashes but kwin works. The crash can be reproduced some of the time. Sometimes, plasma-desktop is restarted automatically; sometimes I have to do that manually. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: Boot system and login via KDM. plasma-desktop crashes but kwin works. The crash can be reproduced some of the time. Actual Results: plasma-desktop crashes. Sometimes, plasma-desktop is restarted automatically; sometimes I have to do that manually. Expected Results: plasma-desktop starts without crash. If it does crash, it should be always restarted. This is on an system x86_64 which is booted (from an external drive) on different hardware interchangeably. One has Intel onboard graphics, the other Nvidia Quadro (laptop). I do not use proprietary drivers. I do use gallium (mesa-dri-drivers-experimental) but the crash happens on both systems. It does not happen only when switching between both systems. Desktop effects with openGL are enabled and working.
[Comment from a bug triager] The crash is related to a library which reads the EXIF (meta)information of some picture files, which are loaded by the Frame plugin. Just to be sure of that you can try removing the Frame images from your desktop. You can also try to update your system. If you re-add the Frame plasmoid and Plasma crash again, then we can track down the bug and report it to the EXIF/libkexiv developers Regards

Thanks for the hint! I'll try that but have to wait for at least a week to see whether it helps reproducibly. > You can also try to update your system. Well, Fedora 14 with current updates... I've had this problem with several KDE 4.5.x but we may have 4.6 soon in kde-redhat. > If you re-add the Frame plasmoid and Plasma crash again, then we can track down > the bug and report it to the EXIF/libkexiv developers > Regards Thanks!
