Description of problem: After today's update on start up of KDE get error msg "Plasma Workspace - The KDE crash handler - A Fatal error occurred. The application plasma workspace (Plasma) crashed and caused the signal 11 CSIGSEG" Then get blue screen and no response. Gnome works OK Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): KDE 4.1 How reproducible:Start Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
That's strange because it works for me and many others on F9 x86_64.
Googled the issue amd found that identical problem happened with Kubuntu e.g. http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3096602.0 Perhaps, unwisely, I tried what I thought might be same solution i.e delete./kde (maybe should have deleted .kde/share/kde4). KDE 4.1 now opens but obviously did some, but surprising little, damage, mainly to kmail. Can copy some stuff from .kde.BAK but obviously this is not optimal solution to problem.
I had exactly the same problem after the update of Sept. 10.
