Thanks for all your suggestions. I really do not think this is a CPU over hearting issue. This is what I found :
After much testing with various combinations, I have pinned down the problem to issue happening only when bootup into init 5. i.e. even if I boot in safe mode with init 5 with acpi=off this issue persists.
However if I boot into init 3, and then I start kde with startx after logging in to text console, the system is stable.
With standard Grub stanza instead of failsafe?
Any ideas?
You did do updates as soon as you finished the install, right? If you have a vga= (framebuffer) parameter on default cmdline, try booting with it removed. If you don't, try adding one (e.g. vga=788). Maybe adding nolapic to default cmdline might help. Try appending acpi=off on default cmdline. If this isn't exactly what you described above, append 3 on default cmdline, then use startx. -- "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
