Bug Description

Binary package hint: kdebase

I have a folder with about 40 pdfs in it, ranging from 360K to 25M in size (they are architects plans, so rather large). Whenever I browse to this folder using either Dolphin or Konqueror, as soon as I put the mouse in the main window where the file listings are, it crashes.
I'm not sure if this is useful, but here is the backtrace I get (I took out most of the no debugging symbols found bits):

(no debugging symbols found)
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libthread_db.so.1".

I've also noticed that KPDF comes up with a blank page when I try and load one of these 25mb pdfs. That could possibly have something to do with it?

Thank you for filing this bug.
What version of Kubuntu and KDE are you using?
Could you test if you can reproduce this on Hardy?
Do you have thumbnail previews enabled? Do some of them successfully load but maybe get stuck on the big files and crash?
Please install kdebase-dbg and see if you can get a better backtrace.

Could you also test if you can reproduce this with konqueror/dolphin 4.0?

I will, but I am in Australia on holiday at the moment. Give me a week or two ;)
