Bug Description
Binary package hint: kcm-touchpad
Release: KUbuntu 10.04
Package version: 0.3.1-0ubuntu3
Expect to happen: KDE4 should always start without a crash
What happens instead:
KDE4 starts normally only after the first login. After doing logout and any subsequent logins, KDE4 report
a crash in KCMInit due to the touchpad control module (kcm_touchpad.so). In case of the crash, the touchpad
settings are not get loaded, though it is more important for me that keyboard settings (like the ones controlling the
language switching) are not loaded as well - maybe KCMInit should load them after touchpad settings, and does not do
so due to the crash in the touchpad module. The stack backtrace of the crash is attached.
Also, if this crash of KCMInit on sturtup did happen, the touchpad configuration module is greyed out entirely, the touchpad just cannot be configured in such KDE sessions.
