Comment 1 Peter Gückel 2011-07-18 18:31:26 UTC
I just checked: it does not happen on i686, only x86_64. I use the same script on both computers to create and mount, and unmount and delete the loopback devices. On the x86_64, the plasma-desktop crashes (the screen turns black, but the open windows remain, hence konsole is still active, then it restarts itself after a pause and a message about debugging).

I just opened it again, and this time it did not happen, even though it had happened 3 times consecutively before I opened this bug report. Strange.

Comment 2 Peter Gückel 2011-07-18 18:32:11 UTC
And now it crashed again!

Comment 3 Peter Gückel 2011-07-18 18:33:31 UTC
I don't know if this is a luks problem, or a kde one.

Comment 4 Jaroslav Reznik 2011-07-19 07:43:42 UTC
Could you please provide backtrace for the crash?

Reassigned to kdelibs, probably Solid issue.

Could you tell me how I do that?

A problem, the crash doesn't always occur. I just tried opening and closing an encrypted loopback device of the luks type and nothing happened. another time, yesterday, there was a crash, but plasma did not show the usual window for a crashed application. Sometimes it does; sometimes it doesn't.

Comment 7 Peter Gückel 2011-07-19 19:13:08 UTC
Okay, this time I did get the window that asks to report. I already reported, but it is presently downloading 400MB of debug programs. It cannot find the debug programs for kde-unstable, I presume, since there was some message about not finding some packages. Tell me which ones I should install.

Comment 9 Peter Gückel 2011-08-06 04:54:10 UTC
I upgraded to kde-4.7.0. Unfortunately, this is not solved.

Comment 10 Peter Gückel 2011-08-27 16:06:24 UTC
I changed the version to Fedora 16, since I had it happen again, since upgrading.

Comment 11 Peter Gückel 2011-10-07 02:14:32 UTC
I was still happening this morning with kde-4.7.1. I just upgraded to 4.7.2, so I don't know yet.

Comment 12 Peter Gückel 2012-02-11 03:30:13 UTC
I have been using kde-4.8.0 for a while and I haven't seen this for quite some time.
