Description Andrew Sheehan 2004-11-22 10:46:56 UTC

After attempting to add a window list to the kicker, the kicker crashed.  Now when KDE starts, the kicker crashes immediately.  The backtrace is attached above.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  KDE kicker crashes on startup now.
2.  It initally worked until I attempted to add a windowlist.  Then it crashed immediately and hasn't run since.
Actual Results:  
KDE crash hander pops up saying "The application KDE Panel (kicker) crashed and
caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV)."

Expected Results:  
Start the kicker normally

Aaron Seigo fixed a lot of kicker bugs in cvs for kde 3.4. I reported a related bug a while ago, which is fixed in between. As a workaround edit (or delete, if necessary) ~/.kde/share/config/kickerrc.
