Without some error message we're lost and can't help you.

well. SIGSEGV with kcminit, since debug symbols are not in binary, unable to get
more information.

'emerge info' at least?

what I should do next? I am downgrading compiler to latest "stable" and
compiling kde-meta-3.4.1 with use flag debug, is it enought to get more
information from crash?

[Comment 6 Gregorio Guidi (RETIRED) 2005-06-02 00:56:44 UTC]

In addition, you should recompile everything with safe CFLAGS (remember to 
turn off ccache before recompiling). 
Please reopen if the problem persists after that. 
 
Also, make sure you are not mixing things compiled with gcc-3.3 and gcc-3.4, 
kde and all its dependencies should be compiled with just one of them. See bug 
61146 for more info.
