I had an itch to try Linux on my desktop again, so I formatted and installed Kubuntu 5.10 (Breezy
). It appears to have the same issue, but is running KDE3.5 and a newer kernel. Whatever it is
is still around.

If I excessively use KDE's menus, or simply after a while of regular usage, the system will freeze
as previously stated (mouse works fine, except nothing else responds.. the only thing that has an
effect is Alt+SysRq+1/t. I'll post the results of that tonight.

This does seem to freeze less often than my last install did. Also, right before freezing, all of
the title bars (Qt widgets?) seem to stop working.. leaving big white rectangles in the title
bars.

This is also a regular install of Kubuntu amd64, this time using the DVD installer.
