From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040312 Epiphany/1.1.12 Description of problem: The first time that I attempted to use Kalarm and create an alarm event caused Knotify to crash and cause a signal 11. This is most likey due to the fact that there isn't a sound card in the computer and the alarm event was set to use sound. This appears to only have happened the first time I attempted to do this. The second time I got the message, 'During the previous startup, KNotify crashed while instantiating Knotify. Do you want to try again or disable aRts sound output. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdeutils-3.2.1 and arts-1.2.1-1.1 How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Started kalarm from the Accessories menu 2. Went to the Actions Menu and selected 'New' 3. Typed in a short description of the alarm and checked the sound box 4. It then click the 'Try' button on the bottom of the dialog Actual Results: Knotify crashed and caused a signal 11. Expected Results: The test alarm should just appear and the app should probably alert me to the fact that there is not a sound card setup on the computer. Additional info: This backtrace appears to be useless. This is probably because your packages are built in a way which prevents creating of proper backtraces, or the stack frame was seriously corrupted in the crash.
