https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=463722 User mattm3a@yahoo.com added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=463722#c3 --- Comment #3 from Matthew Mah 2009-01-14 08:46:48 MST --- I've been able to most consistently produce the system crash when closing okular. I have been unable to get a backtrace. When I run with in gdb, I see messages for: Error: PDF file is damaged - attempting to reconstruct xref table... Error: Couldn't find trailer dictionary Error: Couldn't read xref table okular(9835)/kio (KDirWatch) KDirWatchPrivate::removeEntry: doesn't know "/home/ matt/TimingLocation" I also see messages for thread creation and deletion: [New Thread 0xb2f2fb90 (LWP 9857)] [Thread 0xb2f2fb90 (LWP 9857) exited] [New Thread 0xb2f2fb90 (LWP 9860)] [Thread 0xb2f2fb90 (LWP 9860) exited] At the time of the crash, the system is entirely nonresponsive, so I can't run a backtrace. I also tried running okular in valgrind, but I get the same behavior. When I close okular, the system stops responding to input. I can't currently give out the latex file I'm working on, but I will try to produce another simple version that generates this error. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This is to check if it is a hard system lock or just the XServer taking down all input devices. If it doesn't hardlock please try to get the backtrack as well. Also please try to report upstream as well to get some okular devs to look at it as well. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I get a signal 6 (SIGABRT) after updating several times, but without closing the file.
