Kicker crashes on log out

In the last 2 years i've done about 5 gentoo installations on this machine. Eeverytime no matter how i set it up, if i use KDE after i try to logout everytime kicker will crash. It seems this is only a problem on this machine as i've done Gentoo setup's on other people's computers and it works fine. It also only begins after i change panel properties from the default. It's color, transparency, etc.

Any idea what could be causing it? Other than kicker KDE is fairly stable, as stable as KDE is anyway.

The same here, but I don't know why.

Same here as well, I think it has to do with your CFLAGS though.

I also have the Kicker crash. My cflags are: "-march-pentium4 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"

Search the forums, you'll find a million and one threads about this, as well as countless bug reports. It is a known issue.

As far as I can see, the reason kicker crashes on exit is because it requires klauncher to close, but for some reason klauncher is closed before kicker is. I don't know the ins and outs of KDE, so I also have no idea to test this theory.
