I've finally upgraded my main computer to 11.3 w/KDE4 - actually a clean install of 11.3 in a fresh partition, and a new /home/$USER so nothing from 11.2 is interfering. I can still boot to 11.2 as a comparison.
The problem is... 11.3 is periodically freezing. The lock or freeze never lasts more than a few seconds, but its long enough that if I'm typing an email when it happens, several words won't be entered... when the lock/freeze happens my system fans go from idle to full power and I see a CPU spike start in my system monitor - I say start because the actual spike never gets shown on the graph since the computer is 100% unresponsive during the freeze.
Might be it is different issue, but after upgrade from 11.2 to 11.3 (KDE4), I face freezing, especially when computer is doing nothing, just showing screensaver. Content of ~/ is same as in 11.2 where I had no such problems. Processor does not consume much, computer (ThinkPad) just freezes. I have to hold power button and then wait at least 5 minutes - when I turn it on immediately, after GRUB I see only black screen and computer does really nothing. Strange. Very strange... Any idea what it could be?
Most of the weird issues in 11.3 seem to revolve around the graphics drivers. Per the release notes, the first thing to try is adding "nomodeset" at the end of your boot command in grub. You can add boot parameters via yast if you're not familiar with doing it directly in /boot/grub/menu.lst In Yast, it is yast-system-boot_loader. Then find the grub line you want to modify and edit it. The optional params are at the bottom of the edit dialog box.
