klauncher crashed with SIGSEGV in __kernel_vsyscall()

[Xavier Fung]

Binary package hint: kde4libs

After updating to KDE 3.97 package, it simply crash and revert to the login screen after showing the splash screen of KDE. This also happens to other linux distribution which packages KDE 4 RC, and I suspect this is an upstream issue.

The last stacktrace posted was running ubuntu 8.04 (hardy) alpha version. i'm alternating between gnome and kde4 right now. the bug reporter didn't pop up until i'd logged into gnome 2 or 3 times after logging in to kde4. not sure why or if that's relevant.

Unfortunately, your backtrace is not complete and it's not possible to determine what exactly happened. However, your bug looks like bug 141418 and I'll mark as duplicate. If you are able to reproduce it, you are strongly invited to post a new backtrace.
Thanks for your help.
