I don't know why but this happened to me too with fedora 9 kde...and that's the reason why i moved back to fedora 8 amd 64

do you have the i386 or the amd 64 version ? i've seen that ALL the amd 64 version OF EACH DISTRO are LESS STABLE THAN THE I386 version

I was stable in the use of opensuse 11.0 64-bit.
It didn't have any problem until now.
