Could it be that KDE4 and KDE3 with accelerated graphical features would lock my system up but a game as graphically intensive as Doom 3 would not?

Okay, here we are almost a month later. I'm still using WindowMaker, which is cool, but I really miss my KDE. So you don't have to read back through, when I use KDE4 (and a few times when I've used KDE3), my system doesn't run for very long before it completely locks up - no key sequence or anything else will get it to do anything until I do a hard reset. I looked for anything that would give me a clue, including the log files. I checked the last backup of /var/log/messages and didn't see anything interesting... until now. This time, I looked at more than one of those backups and they all end with the same thing, this: Feb 16 21:46:11 goddamnmaddog syslog-ng[2062]: SIGHUP received, restarting syslog-ng Feb 16 21:46:11 goddamnmaddog kernel: hub 6-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4 Feb 16 21:46:11 goddamnmaddog kernel: klogd 1.4.1, ---------- state change ---------- Feb 16 21:46:12 goddamnmaddog kernel: hub 6-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4 Sorry about the word wrap - I figure it's not too bad. I'll resend with word wrap turned off if anyone asks. Around the beginning of the year, I bought a USB card because the built-in USB has gotten flaky. The addition of the card not only gave me these new ports, but it made the flaky built-in stuff work right, as well. Might it also have caused this problem? When KDE asks the system if anything's been plugged in, might it cause the system to freak out with my card? I'm thinking about removing or disabling something, but I'd like to know if there's a way for me to figure out what's going on before I start ripping stuff out of my box.
