Thank you Florian and Kamaraju, I am impressed by the speed and
helpfulness of the Debian-Users mailing list :) As for my system, I am
completely up to date (clean install of 4.0r0) and the crash doesn't
happen in the tty1 terminals, Only inside KDE/X11. I checked the bell
settings in Konsole (settings ---> bell) and it was set to System bell
and not visual bell, BUT (the good news) I tried setting the bell
settings to 'system notification', 'visual bell', and 'none' and all
three of those settings allow me to use konsole with NO CRASHES :D So
it seems that the crashes only happen when the bell setting is set to
'system bell', but the funny thing is that I don't actually hear the
bell beep, the crash happens first (even though my sound SEEMS to work
fine for other things).
So here are the attachments you wanted me to add, if you could help me
figure out where to file a bug report and what info to include I would
be very grateful :)
Thank you both so much
Pat
