Hello David,

Listmates,

	Success, first email from the new arch box on kde3 with opera! The  
issue
I have is that every time kde starts, ksplash crashes with a SIGSEGV  
(11)
message. Is this an easy fix? Thanks!

I think the backtrace of that crash ends in a library provided by the  
libxi
package. And these crashes started since I upgraded libxi from 1.1.4 to  
1.2.1.
Only yesterday I downgraded the package to the previous version and I  
have yet
to hear if that solved the problem.

See this article [1] for more info on downgrading packages.

Kind regards,

Thanks Bram, DR,

	I've attached the backtrace from the kplash crash:
