Could be, Rex.

I think there are some redraw routines going into a loop.  I'm also
running dual displays.  That might have something to do with it too.  

KDE4.2 isn't terrible by any means.  There are just a few things that
need a bit of attention.  

I am going to wait for KDE4.2.1 before I say anything.  I bet all these
issues will be cleaned up shortly.   None of them are deal breakers for
me. 

BTW: Have you seen the blog posts on how Qt4.5 is supposed to be much
better than Qt4.4 ?
