Frequent Dolphin Crashes

view story
linux-howto

http://forums.opensuse.org – I really want to like Dolphin. It seems like it's very versatile as a file manager and would work great once I learn how to take advantage of it. But I can't, it keeps crashing! So far it's the only part of opensuse 11.2 I've been unhappy with. Every single time I try to use Dolphin for more than a couple minutes, it crashes. It doesn't matter if I'm using it or not. If it's just sitting in the background, it crashes. If I'm browsing files, it crashes. If I look at it wrong, it crashes. This frequently happens on both our desktops. One is an Intel Core 2 Duo on an X48 board, and the other is an AMD 5050e on a 790G motherboard. Completely different platforms with vastly different desktop settings. So for now I have good, old Konqueror set as my file manager. But I'd love to know why Dolphin keeps crashing. How do I go about diagnosing this problem? (Distributions)

Stories similar to Frequent Dolphin Crashes

OS 11.2x86_64, KDE 4.3.1 desktop.

The Dolphin file manager crashes on me randomly. It does not seem to be connected to any particular operation, but just "goes away" with no warning & nothing in the system logs. Starting Dolphin in a terminal window gives nothing upon crashing, just the prompt comes back (so far, anyway.)

I have Dolphin Browser, and it consistently crashes whenever I am on mobile view and try to log in to most websites. The Browser freezes and then crashes. Does this happen to anyone else?

Even when I enable the hidden files option,  cannot see them. I close the file manager and reopen the folder again, no luck. The only way I see the files is move the files to another folder through terminal. Then I can see them.

The concept of the right-click context menu has been around since forever but you don't have to be content with the defaults that come with your software, especially file managers. KDE's Dolphin and Konqueror are no exceptions.

Dolphin audio CD integration 3 years 23 weeks ago

I went from 11.1 GNOME to 11.2 KDE, and I noticed now that if I load an audio CD and open it in Dolphin, Dolphin does "stuff" with the contents: I see directories for Ogg files, for example.

Now, this looks like a cool feature, but how do I control the ripping process (bit rate, file names, etc.)? I can't find any settings in Dolphin that deals with this?

Hey guys,

I am not sure what information I can give you, but tell you exactly what is happening when my computer crashes/freezes: A lot of the time I can just be running Chromium and the computer will crash. Other times it can be VLC Media Player. I am using the LXDE desktop when most crashes occur, but I did experience a crash about 30 minutes ago with the i3 desktop. My reset button on my compu

At work, I would like to use KDE's dolphin as a file manager. However, our home directories reside on an AFS share [1]. When starting dolphin, it becomes unresponsive for dozens of minutes.

After one of the recent upgrades of my Debian Testing the default file manager in KDE switched from Dolphin to Konqueror for some reason. How can I switch it back?
