immediately with no issues. I also used hp-toolbox, pidgin, and rdesktop
and they worked fine within the KDE 4 environment. A similar was had on
Friday and Saturday -- hibernating between days. I didn't get around to
installing KDE 4.2 on the work laptop until 2009-01-29.
I'm fairly sure the crash is related to both my email accounts being tls
with self-signed certificates. Well, actually one is not self-signed, it is
signed by a non-standard CA and KDE 4 doesn't seem to want to import the CA
yet. I haven't investigated the error fully. Sometimes in the flood of
kwallet/kgpg/"bad tls" dialogs kmail gets confused and gives up the ghost.
I've had kmail from KDE 3 do that as well, and I'm hoping it's no more often
with KDE 4.2.
So, right now I give 4.2.0 a thumbs-up, but it's still not as good as KDE
3.5.10. I'm keeping KDE 3.5.10 around in case something comes up, but I
don't imagine that will be an issue. If it is possible, I'll stick with
4.2.x until the KDE project stops maintenance and then move to the most
recent released 4.x.

Thanks. I'd like to stay on 4.2 during the 4.3 alpha/beta phase. I'll
gladly be an 4.3 RC tester, but alpha/beta is just too dodgy and I have
work to do.
So you find 4.2 stable enough for you daily work?
