Application asked to unregister timer 0x26000004 which is not registered in this thread. Fix application.

Comment 3 George Goldberg 2011-08-18 10:09:10 UTC
I don't think there's anything in the troubleshooting guide that addresses this problem. It looks like kcmshell isn't finding the accounts KCM module for some reason.

Did you compile KDE Telepathy from source yourself or install distribution packages? Have you restarted your computer or logged out/in again from KDE before running this and the bug is still present?
Comment 4 George Goldberg 2011-08-18 10:10:43 UTC
The errors in the debug output in Comment #1, although bad, are very unlikely to be connected with this problem. Can you run the contact list in a konsole and paste any debug output that appears after clicking on  the "Configure Accounts" button (assuming some does appear then). That would hopefully give us a clue why the KCM is not being found.
Comment 5 Martin Klapetek 2011-09-15 09:47:57 UTC
Seems like you don't have Accounts KCM installed. Can you please provide us with output of kcmshell4 --list ?
