RE: KDE freezes after apt-get upgrade
>Does the whole machine lock up, or just X? Can you Ctrl-Alt-F2 to the
second virtual terminal? Can you telnet/ssh in to the box? Can you ping the
box?
>If "no" to the last two questions, do you have an eepro100 NIC? I ask, because I have a machine that kept locking up totally during network activity;
turned out to be a bug in the NIC driver; had to use a utility (don't remember which now, but it's apt-gettable) to change a setting in the NIC's
PROM, which solved the problem.

Hi Kent,
Unfortunately I must answer no to all of the above.
I was unable to Ctrl-Alt-F2 to the second virtual terminal. I was running gkrellm at the time and all indicators froze. I was on ppp connection when
it happened.
Strange indeed. It never happened before.
