I don't have the time neither the ability to produce an helpful backtrace, however I can confirm that disabling the "Desktop Effects (compositing right?)" solves the issue for me. I was working without it for quite a lot now, but after kde 4.2 went to the backports I wished to try it with the effects... Result: (almost) immediate lock. I disabled it again and everything works good again. I certainly can't speak technically, but it has something to do with effects for sure.
This bug, at least for ati users with open source driver, wipes out most of the benefits of the new kde... Really hope is solved for Jaunty...
