I have been having this same Issue (I think). As you may be aware my Nvidia 9500GT packed up a few weeks ago and I now have an NVIDIA 9600GSO Ever since I have had this card my entire plasma desktop freezes intermittently (as you guys have described) although the following situations replicate the issue every time: running Kerbal Space Program and waiting for the GPU temp to get to 70 degrees C running Google Maps in firefox and entering street view (CPU goes to 100% then entire dektop freezes) running Google Earth and having the mouse cursor outside the Google Earth window when the 'world' is still loading (CPU goes to 100% then entire dektop freezes) I have the official NVIDIA drivers installed from the community repo. I have re-installed opensuse entirely from the DVD (checked the DVD as well) and same issue. I never had this issue with my 9500GT at all, but now I can't use those 3 programs at all. I am forced to raise elephants (Magic sysrq) to reboot. On 13 April 2015 at 11:32, Bob Williams <linux@barrowhillfarm.org.uk> wrote:

Spoke too soon. :-( It just happened again, after I'd started playing some music (which I hadn't tried in the couple of days since applying the patch). Lasted about 10 seconds.
Perhaps this bug report[1] is related? The common cause seems to be a driver bug. It sounds very similar, so yes, it's likely to be the same bug.
If so, a backtrace of kwin_x11 while stuck should point to the nvidia
driver.
I'd be glad to help, but I don't know how. I'm not a professional, but can follow simple, explicit instructions.
