Yes, no issues with kde 4.2.0. What happened is I'd upgraded to the bad |
| 26 |
nvidia-drivers-180.35, downgraded to 180.29, then upgraded kde from |
| 27 |
4.2.0 to 4.2.1. One weird side-effect of the 4.2.1 upgrade is that I |
| 28 |
lost my plasma desktop layout. No biggy, I just added the plasmoids |
| 29 |
back. Then I noticed the lancelot cpu usage issue. I have not noticed |
| 30 |
any behavior problems. Kde 4.2 has been rock solid. |

All I can think to try is to move my ~/.kde4.2 directory and let it |
| 39 |
regenerate. |
