Recently I have been getting "Kwin is unstable it seems to have crashed several times in a row." when logging in with session set to KDE, and as expected no WM. However, a dialog pops up that offers to try another window manager, and if you select metacity it does work. Subsequently running "kwin --replace" results in kwin crashing and no WM again. Any ideas what might be causing this and how to get kwin working again? There did not appear to be any updates to kde or X installed recently so I am puzzled. One perhaps related strange thing is that, regardless of whether metacity is running or even with no WM at all, clicking the "Desktop" icon in the systemsettings app causes the app to crash. This makes me think it may be related to desktop effects, but it could also be unlreated. Removing ~/.kde does not prevent the problem. System is running SL6.
