Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is missing. Could you please add the crash report that you received? You should be able to find it in '/var/crash/'. This will allow us to better troubleshoot your bug. Thanks in advance.

Sorry but in /var/crash/ is no report from 1.4.07 and no one from k3b.
The bug happend two times, but at the moment it still runs.
I will report more when it happens next time.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

Okay, thanks. We'll be waiting for the crash report.

I'fe test it to find out when it will crash when k3b start.

It will crash when an updater like adept synaptics (could be dpkg?) will install ,configure an package and at the same time i start k3b.
It could be my mistake because I do an Update and working at the same time.
When it crash (freece) there is no report in /var/crash/.
Thanks for your time to help me.

 Ok, now that sounds like it might be bad hardware. Try rebooting to memtest86+, and letting it run overnight. If it finds any memory errors, try relaxing your memory timings a little. If the problem only happens when there's disk access, that won't help, though.

 However, k3b locks my whole machine hard (ALT+SYSRQ+B does nothing, I can't ping it, let alone ssh in) when I insert a blank DVD+R. But not otherwise; I can burn CDs, and I can start k3b with the disk in the drive. I'll report it as a separate bug.

We are closing this bug report as it lacks the information, described in the previous comments, we need to investigate the problem further. However, please reopen it if you can give us the missing information and feel free to submit bug reports in the future.

I am under the impression that Peter was going to file a separate bug report.
