I have similar symptoms with my Kubuntu 7.04. Didn't have these problems
at all with Edgy. Today I've already had two crashes. I haven't found a
way to reproduce it, but I do have firefox open and last time it crashed
when I was just typing some text in firefox. Before the last time it has
crashed few times when I've switched between virtual desktops.
What always happens is that CPU level goes to 100% before the crash
(I've gkrellm running) and then I end up with a black screen with a
blinking cursor. Last time I was able to login with ssh from another
machine and start KDM remotely, but I've had crashes that kills sshd
too. My daemon.log said last time:

I've also had the same NetworkManager messages there, but I removed it
earlier when I thought it was the reason for my crashes. Here's some
logs from an earlier crash:

(I removed the bluetooth stuff after that too, but it wasn't the reason
for my crashes either.)
I use also KArm, which is using 100% CPU time for many seconds when
changing tasks now in Feisty, but I guess that hasn't anything to do
with this issue. One other thing that uses all CPU resources is the
logout fade, but these are probably just KDE issues.
These crashes are bad, and since this bug was the closest I could find
there must be some configuration or driver issue. My X configuration
differs from many others since I have two monitors using xinerama, which
might have something to do here. (No 3D accelaration of any kind because
of that...) My graphics card is:

I of course have all the latest updates. Kernel "2.6.20-16-386 #2 Thu
Jun 7 20:16:13 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux", KDM - 3.5.6-0ubuntu20.1,
xserver-xorg - 7.2-0ubuntu11, xserver-xorg-core - 1.2.0-3ubuntu8 and so
on.
Does anyone how ideas how to find out what's causing these crashes and
how to fix it?
