QCompleter on Plasma::LineEdit not working properly

[Hugo Pereira Da Costa]

Hi,

for a "shot in the dark" could you try with another style than oxygen 
(if its the one your using)
or using oxygen by disabling the "animations" in the oxygen style 
configuration dialog
("configure" in systemsettings->appearance->style, next to the combobox) 
? It might be responsible for the freeze.
