Since it appears to be oriented around your KDE upgrade, I have to ask, is there an ATI card involved here? I had a problem with Redhat (7.0 or 7.1) on my machine here at work where X would do the same thing. I think it's still an issue, I just haven't had time to dink with it. Anyway, I used to be a firm believer in ATI cards but I'm quickly realizing that better alternatives exist. Or maybe it has nothing to do with that at all. Could be that the new KDE is pissing off your exisitng X version, have you upgraded to 4.x or are you on 3.x? -Brian
