Hi Stan,

great to read this!

I just found out, that there is a new driver available for NVIDIA and I
will install it immediately...
I use Nvidia 6600.

It could be a graphics driver problem, but it used to work before... How
can the graphics-instructions - issued by kopete (not directly of course) -
bring down X? How does that work? And also it doesn't happen on a regular
basis.

Thanks!

Any graphics use may cause this type of lockup _IF_ this is the real problem.
You may want to get the previous driver to the one you are currently using
too, just in case the latest-greatest doesn't work either.
