I changed the position of the KDE task bar to the side of the screen so it wouldn't conflict with the Dock.
After I relocated the KDE task bar, KDE and X11 crashed, and I got a crash report dialog saying that XDarwin had crashed. Have tried running X11 in full-window mode, and was able to get KDE to launch without crashing once. I reset the task bar to it's default settings, and then KDE and X11 crashed again. Now, KDE crashes in both full and windowed mode. Have changed no other settings. KDE gets fully loaded, the taskbar shows up, then POOF.....it crashes.
Console crash report gives me:
Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001) Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0xd911b7cc

You'd think a simple thing like changing a preference wouldn't kill the entire X11 environment. Would rather not do a nuke and reinstall of my drive to fix this, but it might be faster anything else, unless someone can offer suggestions.
TIA
