Re: [SOLVED!] Plasma Desktop Crash, KDE 4.11.02, x64

I'm testing two possibility:
1. Office comp: plasma configs are removed, all updates enabled.
2. Home comp: problem libs downgraded and blocked from update.
Seems like first way is the most possible.

Only if you don't want to use plasmoids based on python: like veromix.

Re: [SOLVED!] Plasma Desktop Crash, KDE 4.11.02, x64

I don't think someone has to remove all the configuration. Just remove the offending python scripts from ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc.

E.g. remove:

[Containments][55][Applets][86]
geometry=1080,114,214,112
immutability=1
plugin=cpufreqmon
zvalue=545

Sure.
It's very strange situation: python don't works, digikam don't works... Who's care?

Re: [SOLVED!] Plasma Desktop Crash, KDE 4.11.02, x64

On my PC the problem was caused my a KDE desktop theme called Volatile. I guess the engine used in the theme is incompatible with the latest versions of KDE and/or Qt, because, even after I deleted ~/.kde4/share/apps/desktoptheme.old, and it got fixed, when I setup Volatile to be the workspace theme again, the Settings application crashed.
