Andrew: DebuggingProgramCrash is not useful here as it is python module (written in C++) that is crashing and that instructions do not help.

This looks like duplicate of bug 91545.

I have prepared test packages (i386 only) with fix from KDE SVN. You can install and test them:

http://muse.19inch.net/~lure/feisty/kde-guidance_0.8.0-0ubuntu6~lure1_i386.deb
http://muse.19inch.net/~lure/feisty/kde-guidance-powermanager_0.8.0-0ubuntu6~lure1_i386.deb

Please report back if it fixes or not your problem. If we get good feedback, this fix will be considered for https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates

I just installed the test packages for kde-guidance and
guidance-powermanager.

The good thing: Now guidance-powermanager works again! :-)

However, displayconfig-restore.py still crashes... and still, it only
happens when I use the xorg.conf with dual monitors enabled.

Anyway, thanks a lot for the good work!

I tried Luka's patched packages but I still get the crash on boot :(

displayconfig-restore.py also still crashes for me with my dual monitor setup after patching
