some bugs related to ktorrent (only happening in Archlinux)

Hi everybody!

I'm not quiet sure if this is the right section for this, but maybe somebody has some answers for me.
I'm using ktorrent since a couple of days to replace Azureus. And I found out that ktorrent always freezes my system when storing my torrent files on an reiser4 partition. I talked about the with the devs of ktorrent and they tried it on some ubuntu system and it worked like a charm for them. However my system still freezes and no matter what I do I can't fix this. So I switched back to ext3 in order to use ktorrent. And with ext3 everything worked and the freezes are gone. But I found another annoying bug. When running beryl and starting ktorrent it'll start as an systray icon. So far so good, but as soon as I click on that systray icon the whole xserver crashes the same moment when I click the icon in order to restore the ktorrent window. So I asked the developers of ktorrent again and the told me again that it works on their system and there are no crashes of the xserver at all. I tried it with the current beryl version and also with the previous RC1 from AUR but both times my xserver crashed in the same way.
So right now I don't know what to do to get rid of these problems. So maybe somebody can help...

BTW, I'm running Arch64 if that matters.

Thanks a lot!

Well, I first wanted to know if there are others out there having the same problems before reporting to flyspray...

Anyway, for the reiser4 issue I don't have any output to the console, because I wasn't able to switch to console. The System froze that fast, there wasn't even output on the console when I ran it on front.
About the beryl problem: Where do I have to look for the output? Is it in the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file?

Thanks!
