KDE on VL 5.9 RC3 bugs/annoyances.

[nightflier]

I'm testing what will eventually become 5.9 SOHO, thought I'd keep this separated from the STD thread.

kdemultimedia 3.5.8-i586-1vl59: Kmix crashes. Debug output:

Code:

Sound works otherwise, and I can control volume using app's vol control, or by using alsamixer.

Edit: This problem only occurs on my desktop with an nVidia nForce2 ALC650E (AC97) integrated sound card.

On laptop with Intel-HDA it works fine.

I've been using KDE for a time now, so I guess I'll start reporting crashes that I've faced more than once

Akregator:
when I close a tab where I was reading a full story I get a kde crash window, although akregator continues working.

Code:

Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".
