When I try Alt+F2 in kde44, krunner appears for a second, but when I type in the second or third char, krunner disappears. Anybody got a fix? I use it more than the menu and now you --- can't.
I guess that it's crashing. KRunner uses multiple 'Runners' running in their own threads. If you click the wrench icon at the left side of the KRunner popup, you can disable individual runners. Could you try to disable individual runners (binary search?) to determine which one is dying? You can also restart krunner in gdb in a shell to get a backtrace of the crashing runner with killall krunner && gdb --args krunner --nocrashhandler --nofork then 'run', then when it dies 'bt', copy that, finally 'quit' to get out of gdb, killing the dead and suspended krunner process.
