Over the last couple of weeks I've experienced a series of Konqueror crashes using my vanilla Sarge system while surfing the web. A common feature seems to be Slashdot. In every case, I had Slashdot pages open, and in 3 cases the crash occurred immediately on opening an article link in a new tab.
The crash is not repeatable - usually Konqueror behaves fine if I just restart it and go back to Slashdot. I'm wondering if it's being triggered by a nasty banner ad ... [aren't they all :-)]. I've saved some of the the backtraces, and on checking I see the following fragment is the same in every case : [KCrash handler] #3 0x00000031 in ?? () #4 0x42149164 in KJS::FunctionImp::call () from /usr/lib/libkjs.so.1 #5 0x42003e6c in EmbedLiveConnect::~EmbedLiveConnect () from /usr/lib/libkhtml.so.4 #6 0x42004d3c in EmbedLiveConnect::~EmbedLiveConnect () from /usr/lib/libkhtml.so.4 #7 0x40bd8f43 in QObject::event () from /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 #8 0x40b7ee1f in QApplication::internalNotify () from /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 #9 0x40b7e41e in QApplication::notify () from /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 #10 0x40723ec3 in KApplication::notify () from /usr/lib/libkdecore.so.4 #11 0x40b6e645 in QEventLoop::activateTimers () from /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 #12 0x40b27cfb in QEventLoop::processEvents () from /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 #13 0x40b911d8 in QEventLoop::enterLoop () from /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 #14 0x40b91088 in QEventLoop::exec () from /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 #15 0x40b7f071 in QApplication::exec () from /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 #16 0x415b9ebc in kdemain () from /usr/lib/libkdeinit_konqueror.so #17 0x40018896 in kdeinitmain () from /usr/lib/kde3/konqueror.so #18 0x0804cd30 in ?? () #19 0x00000002 in ?? () #20 0x0806f1a8 in ?? () Well almost the same - the address in the line beginning #20 varies slightly. (1) Is anyone else seeing this ? (2) I'm not skilled at interpreting this further - can anyone here tell me which KDE module or package this is likely to actually lie within, and where to look for known bugs - or which KDE package to file a bug against ?
