From the looks of reports across the net and (especailly) at the KDE bugtraq this is a reasonably widespread issue - some posts say buggy plasmids* are to blame (not applicable in this case as I'm...
Same problem here, although not as severe. plasma-desktop routinely spikes up to 100% CPU usage on one core and sucks up a huge amount of memory - currently 737MB (and I thought explorer.exe was...
If the GRUB prompt isn't coming up (or any other errors for that matter), chances are your GRUB boot block is missing from the hard drive - either because your previous boot block was on the PATA...

Intrepid wasn't an option as there's no KDE3 available for it (long story).
Finally got around the issue once I understood how Hardy's binary blob driver package works. Added "nv nvidia_glx_new"...
I've just bought myself a lovely Asus motherboard with a 730i/9300 chipset to use as my new HTPC frontend but have found out that the nVidia drivers in Hardy don't support the 9000 series, as...
Just bought one for an HTPC myself... but not managed to get the video working in 8.04 yet...! IIRC it requires the 177 or 180 version of the nVidia driver, which aren't yet supported in Hardy.
