I do not think the KDE linked bugs are relevant: * They describe other function that crash, instead of gtk_tree_view_get_background_area+0x8a * The KDE bug report say that the problem is fixed (half a year ago) and I still have the same problem
Also adding "gtk-enable-animations=0" to $HOME/.grkrc-2.0 does not seem to solve the crashes (at least for me) Choosing another GTK theme seems to 'fix' (more like 'circumvent' probably) the problem.
