I get this rarely when entering kde but the display is not frozen and if I ignore it it will continue with no problems. FWIW I had this behaviour yesterday after upgrading to kde 4.3 beta 1. I have never understood the reason and since it is very difficult to reproduce and a minor annoyance I have ignored it. :-) -- Jos? Ab?lio
