--- Comment #5 from bk...@gnu.org ---
I can now confirm it is a nouveau driver issue. By switching to Nvidia, the
desktop has become stable.

However, despite the fact the lockup is triggered by a graphics engine fault
(and you-all can't do much about that), there are some things KDE can do to
make life easier on the victims.

Presumably, I cannot use Ctl-Alt-Shift-F1/PageUp/PageDown because keyboard
events are all delivered to a non-responsive thread. You could add a watchdog
timer thread that would restart KDE after a sufficiently long time. Viz., if
the keyboard events remain untouched for a few seconds, it's likely something
pretty bad is going on.
