mhh, I don't use i386 based hardware normaly, on amd64 KiCad is working
well so far.
O.k., this is an upstream issue and need to be addressed there. Can you
please make a GDB log of a segfault? You need to install kicad-dbgsym
for this.

Once we have a GDB log we can open a issue within the upstream bug
tracker.
