Description Decibels 2004-02-14 08:22:08 UTC
In KDE3.2 Contol Center under Sound & Multimedia if you pick System Notifications it will segfault. The other modules work fine. I have a backtrace.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Control Center and pick Sound & Multimedia/ System Notifications.
   Or start it with: kcmshell kcmnotify.
2. 
3.

Actual Results:  
Immediately segfaults.

Expected Results:  
Module to open and configure system notifications.

This worked when first installed KDE3.2 as far as remember. Other seem to
indicate the same.
Also if you start kcontrol in console you will get:

QSettings: failed to open file '/usr/qt/3/etc/settings/qtrc'

min perms to get rid of that error seem to be chmod to 664 were set 600.

Backtrace from results (from system notifications (ie kcmnotify):

Using:
Qt: 3.3.0

KDE Control Center: 3.2.0

If you want emerge info let me know. Seeing that have conservative cflags and
that everything else seems to be working (got rid of most problems by unmerging
kde 3.1.5, so not having any of the problems that others are having except for
this).
Comment 1 Decibels 2004-03-12 07:43:38 UTC
System Notification works now with KDE 3.2.1 . 
Comment 2 Dominik Stadler (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-13 13:03:09 UTC
Seems to be fixed in 3.2.1, closing bug.
