Also installed KDE 4.6. My system randomly freezes every couple of minutes. I can be in a browser, email or any other program when it happens. The only solution then is a hard-reset by using the power button. I have tried to set all display setting to "default" but it still happens. Is this normal for this release? Can I run some sort of health-check? Re-install just the kernel or KDE? I have run Ubuntu for some months on the same laptop without this continual freezing-up problems. Thank you

Try to disable desktop effects for a while and see if it still happens (System Settings -> Desktop Effects -> uncheck "Enable desktop effects". What graphic card do you have and have you installed the graphic drivers? Problem solved?
