kpowersave crashes
Last modified: 2007-08-30 12:45:33 UTC
I have been running Beta2 since it came out. And I must say that it is one great experience after another :-) That said, kpowersave suddenly crashes after upgrading to the latest factory rpms yesterday. It has worked fine until 24 this month, but something in the rpms happened since then so that it crashes. I also tried installing the debuginfo thingy, but KDE crash handler does not show anything else than this: System configuration startup check disabled. (no debugging symbols found) Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

please install kpowersave-debuginfo and attach another backtrace. Are you sure this needs to be critical?
As said above, I did install kpowersave debuginfo... Critical in the essence that it crashes and therefore powersave is not working on my laptop. For me that is critical since I'm travelling a lot using the functionallity in kpowersave a lot. But of course now after reinstalling and restarting... it works. So for now, close it. I will reopen the case if it reappears and try to attach some more info
Now it crashes again :-( But I cannot see how I can get more debug info!? I started it using --dbg-trace and --nofork, but it has given no more debug info..
(In reply to comment #1 from Will Stephenson) > Are you sure this needs to be critical? No it's not critical at least not because the user updated from factory.
Btw. This is already fixed for Beta 3 and Factory isn't up-to-date. Try the KPowersave package from here: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dkukawka/openSUSE_Factory/
