I also have this on 2 of my desktops since kde 3.5.4 A way to reproduce at will is trying to do a snapshot with ksnapshot in area mode, kwin crashes as soon as the snapshot is taken.
I have submitted upstream and it seems to be a duplicate of another upstream bug with a temporary workaround. ** Bug watch added: KDE Bug Tracking System #131905 http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131905 ** Also affects: kdebase (upstream) via http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131905 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Changed in: kdebase (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed -- closing a window causes kwin to sigsegv https://launchpad.net/bugs/57782 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
