From time to time when I switch in kontact from one view to the contacts

view, kontact crashes. Now I looked into .xsession-err

How can I track this down? Should I turn on debugging for all that ... and what partiularly

thanks regards

This may be a difficult one to track down, especially if it happens sporadically. At minimum you would have to turn on debug info on all tdelibs and tdenetwork, but I wouldn't bet on this to be enough to find the problem. You could get more info if you print a message every time a function is called/exited, but the job to do so would be daunting and frankly not really worth it.
