"Any kernel": any 2.6.9, or any kernel version (2.6.8, 2.6.10 etc.)
Because it's known that some kernel versions had problems with k3b
(perhaps better: k3b had probs with some kernels ... :)
Searching for 2.6.8 and 2.6.9 on this page might help:

IIRC I had serious problems sometimes with Gnome until about 6 months
or so, but this was on, IIRC, 2.4.25, or something like that. I solved
this by moving away from Gnome to Fvwm, and the latter works 99% of
the time like a charm.
I'm not sure whether my problems were k3b related: All I remember is:
After some problems on Gnome my Desktop was empty after logging in
again to Gnome. I fixed the situation by deleting, IIRC, some .gconf.d
(.gconf?) files in my $HOME dir, and after a reboot I think I was able
to see again a full Desktop (with a taskbar etc.) in Gnome. But I had
to reconfigure everything on the latter. IIRC.
