           Summary: Tip of the Day unresponsive when opening Kontact.
                    Requires killing.
           Product: kontact
           Version: 4.4.5
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: summary
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: 2010 at bordenrhodes.com


Version:           4.4.5 (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

Today I closed Kontact with the Summary view open.  When I try to reopen
Kontact, the Tip of the Day popup appears but it is completely unresponsive. 
Clicking anywhere in Kontact or TotD does nothing.  When I go to close the TotD
window, after a few seconds, KDE reports that TotD is not responding (no
kidding) and recommends that I terminate the application Kontact, which gives
me my computer back but keeps me safely out of Kontact.  The whole system does
not hang and rebooting does not fix the problem.

This did not happen earlier today (or earlier period) when Kontact went
directly into KMail, KOrganiser or Akregator or any other module, which is why
I'm reporting it against Summary.  I am still able to access the individual
components of Kontact (which generate their own TotD) without problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Close Kontact with the Summary view open (presuming that it'll reopen
Kontact at the Summary view).  Make sure that TotD is enabled.
2. Open Kontact.
3. Let the insanity begin.
