           Summary: Kontact becomes unresponsive when summary view is made
                    the default initial view
           Product: kontact
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Slackware Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR

Version:            (using KDE 4.4.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Slackware Packages

First of all, thanks for the fantastic work of KDE SC 4.4.0.

I always used Kontact with the Mail plugin enabled by default. In that way, it
usually worked as advertised (mostly).

However, yesterday I configured Kontact to use the Summary plugin by default.
After that, invoking Kontact produced the summary view; but it was completely
unresponsive. Per my configuration, Kontact also produced my Akregator and
KMail tray icons with the unread elements, and checked my feeds; but no user
input was possible. I could not change plugins (e.g., for reading my mail), or
anything else. The only way out was killing the window (either via kwin or by
the old-fashioned ps aux | grep kontact and then kill -9 the relevant
processes).

This is, obviously, a non-acceptable behavior.

I am using Slackware packages prepared by Eric Hameleers, one of the members of
the Slackware staff, under Slackware-current, in a laptop with 512 MB of RAM
and a Celeron M processor. The Qt version is qt-copy from the kde.org website,
version 4.6.1 with KDE.org patches.

The relevant KDE SC packages I am using are described here:

I would appreciate any help regarding this issue.
