I have had a similar problem here with both GNOME and Xfce (4.2 from
CVS).

The kernel resolved the problem that I had with the Broadcom NIC (b44)
however, which was great.

I did not note this new issue until I logged out the first time and then
it was reproducible each time from both desktops. It does not 'crash'
per se, but I get a hard lock up which requires a power down and re-
boot.

This is on a Dell 5150 laptop, 2 Gb RAM, nVidia video card using the
nVidia 6629 driver.

None of this happens of course with the 681 kernel.
