Do you have any (3rd-party?) plasmoids installed? Maybe it is caused by a misbehaving C++ Plasmoid, so try to remove them one after another and see if the crashes disappear. Obtaining a backtrace is also handy in order to locate where the problem is. But that requires you to rebuild the kdelibs and kdebase packages, which may be time consuming. Or, you could try if you see the same problem with kdemod, they offer debug packages straight from the repository. For the record, I have no problems with Plasma on two very different machines (32bit and 64bit), both running KDEmod. Kind regards, -- Bram Schoenmakers What is mind? No matter. What is matter?
