           Summary: crashes on systems using hyperthreading
           Product: digikam
           Version: 0.9.0-svn
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: heiner heiner-lamprecht net


Version:           0.9.0-svn (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          gcc version 4.0.2 
OS:                Linux

When hyperthreading is enabled in the BIOS, digikam crashes often and in several situations, eg. when loading images or editing them in IE.  There is no special way to reproduce the crashes.  I assume, there are some problems in communication between threads.

When hyperthreading is disabled, dikigam runs rocksolid.

System:  SuSE Linux 10.1
