It says krunner crashed It says plasma crashed
I get a new desktop (which I could get back into a normal state), but the problems remains... the most serious one being that the closing of one console crashes and causes all other open consoles to crash and close also.
Not very productive :-)
This sounds a lot like an issue I bumped into in KDE4.2.something. I never reported it because by 4.3.whatever I'm running now... one of the RC's (can't check since I'm at the office right now).. it was corrected, and krunner and plasma are not crashing anymore. For KDE version... I use the One-Click install repos for the Factory version from the openSUSE Wiki. I've used these repos on several machines, and got consistent results - ie a reasonably stable and usable KDE4 desktop. It still has issues, but I use it everyday (for work and for home use eg gaming, websurfing etc) as do the other people I've set up on KDE4.
Can I zap KDE4 alltogether, log out and re-install KDE4 through YaST?
Sure, you can use YaST from the CLI at run level 3 :-) Not as pretty as the GUI version. Just remove all KDE4 and delete the KDE config files from your user home before you restart KDE4.
