konsole crashes every time it is started
Last modified: 2008-04-12 06:08:43 UTC
Running 11.0 in a VirtualBox. 512M memory, 32M video assigned to VirtualBox. EVERY time I start konsole (as a user), it crashes with Signal 11. Started from an XTerm, I get: ======================================== jrobiso2@vbox-11a3:~> konsole <unknown program name>(20074)/: Communication problem with "konsole" , it probably crashed. Error message was: "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply" : " "Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)" " KCrash: Application 'konsole' crashing... sock_file=/home/jrobiso2/.kde4/socket-vbox-11a3/kdeinit4__0 jrobiso2@vbox-11a3:~> ================================================== If I "su -" in an xterm and run konsole as root, it works. Here are the contents of that .kde4/socket-vbox-11a3/ directory: drwx------ 2 jrobiso2 users 4096 2008-04-11 15:35 ./ drwxrwxrwt 22 root root 4096 2008-04-11 16:00 ../ srw------- 1 jrobiso2 users 0 2008-04-11 15:35 kdeinit__0= srw------- 1 jrobiso2 users 0 2008-04-11 15:35 kdeinit-:0= srw------- 1 jrobiso2 users 0 2008-04-11 15:35 kdeinit4__0= srwxr-xr-x 1 jrobiso2 users 0 2008-04-11 15:35 klauncherKSFv2b.slave-socket= srwxr-xr-x 1 jrobiso2 users 0 2008-04-11 15:35 klauncherMT2720.slave-socket= srwxr-xr-x 1 jrobiso2 users 0 2008-03-28 17:09 klauncherMT2721.slave-socket= srwxr-xr-x 1 jrobiso2 users 0 2008-03-28 16:26 klauncherT15439.slave-socket= -rw-r--r-- 1 jrobiso2 users 98 2008-04-11 15:35 KSMserver__0 root's .kde4 directory has no socket subdirectory.
Should be already fixed for Beta 1. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 360405 ***
