1 Merged Qt 3.1. Konsole crashing badly every time I start it.
2 Everything else is fine. If I start from an xterm it says:
3
4 Qt: Locales not supported on X server
5 _KDE_IceTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.ICE-unix should be set to root
6 DCOPServer up and running.
7 Qt: Locales not supported on X server
8 KCrash: crashing.... crashRecursionCounter = 2
9 KCrash: Application Name = konsole path = <unknown> pid = 6317
10 Qt: Locales not supported on X server
11
12 The message about locales was there earlier as well, but it did not
13 effect anything. Any idea what to do?

15 Thanks in advance. -- Viktor
