           Summary: startkde goes defunct when modifying settings using
                    control center
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: steve szmidt org


Version:            (using KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
Compiler:          gcc version 4.1.2 20070925 (Red Hat 4.1.2-33) 
OS:                Linux

Just installed Fedora 8 for amd64 and only kde.

If I only login (as a normal user) and then logout it works well. If I use something like the control center and then logout startkde will go defunct. It seems to not be anything specific, but I changed the user image to one of the included images and it happend. I had noticed this after doing some other change in the C.C.

Might be Fedora related as I've not seen it with other distro's. Nor did it happen when I had done the same install which included default Gnome. 

Some apparent similarities with 99436, except after logout the mouse is still working and Ctrl-Alt-Backspace works.
