By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Version: Kubuntu Karmic / Ubuntu 9.10. KDE 4 installed by default. KDE 3.5 also installed by following these instructions:

The logon is performed via the KDE logon manager, and if KDE 3.5 is selected, the KDE Crash Handler reports the following error as the desktop is loaded:

"The application nspluginscan (nspluginscan) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV)."

This is a duplicate of bug 130, which I believe to be fixed in Lucid.

Can you upgrade to Lucid and see if the bug is still present?
