           Summary: kde crashes when reading an invalid *.desktop file in
                    .kde4/Autostart
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.1.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: stefan at endrullis.de


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 with 4.1.00 (binary packages provided by
http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu).

I have created the file cat .kde4/Autostart/kicker.desktop with the following
content:
-------------------
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Kicker
Exec=kicker
-------------------

I can still start KDE4 but I get the following error message (in a popup
window) after the start: "The desktop entry file
/home/stefan/.kde4/Autostart/kicker.desktop has no Type=... entry."

OK, maybe the .desktop file is invalid. That's my fault. But IMO KDE should not
completely crash when I click the OK button of the popup window :)
