I have the same thing happening on two computers configured with Mandrake
9.1
...ends up with:
0x40f10677 in waitpid () from /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0
#0 0x40f10677 in waitpid () from /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0
#1 0x40636e7b in KCrash::defaultCrashHandler(int) ()
from /usr/lib/libkdecore.so.4
Looks like a KDE problem.
I noticed the same thing attempting to set up faxing vis KDE.
When using browser Konqueror crashes on attempt to print - as does ANY KDE
program ... (conincidentally, Mozilla also won't print - does NOTHING.
Galeon prints fine.)
Any KDE answer folks out there?
Think I'll cross post to kde group.
