I have had a problem with kate crashing X from scrotwm.
I have also had another problem with kate that does not crash X.
I also built kdebase and scrotwm with debugging
I haven't been able to reproduce that X crash again.
However, I have noticed an easily reproducible problem with kate.
When I close with Ctrl-Q, shuts down just fine.
If I use Alt-f, then q, it consistently and usually crashes (kate,
not X).
Hi,
could you try the following patch against kdebase to
see if it fixes kate's crashing.
For me kate crashed when I selected previous session
and exited with alt-f-q, not when I started a new
session. The patch fixes it for me. It's from KDE's bug tracking,
issue 183356: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183356
I attached it inline, and it's also available at:
http://openbsd.fi/iku/files/kdebase.diff
After applying this patch, I have seen no further crashes.
Looks like it works fine
