I have zero browser plugins installed. So that is not the culprit. And why should plugins lock up X when used under KDE but not under XFCE? The problem that X freezes with KDE4 is more likely with webbrowsers but happend when using other programms too. But because of the fact that one or more browsers are nearly always running it is hard to find a freeze without a browser running. > There could be a cornercase bug in KDE that only shows up on your > specific combination, or maybe there is some edge KDE app you use that > disagrees with violently with FF.

So t is unlikely to be driver related. I use no edge KDE apps only amarok, yakuake, kate, konsole, dolphin, ktorrent from time to time. All of them but dolphin is still in use under xfce4 so I think I can rule them out too. I know it could still be a truckload of other things, but as a fan of Ockham's razor I still say that KDE4 is broken. Greetings Sebastian Beßler
