Mine got a couple of small updates yesterday evening - only about 700k. That 
seemed to pretty well foul it up. kmail kept crashing, firefox refused to 
start at all, then the entire system crashed and hung - twice. Rebooted it 
again and ran the older kernel which got it going long enough to get the 290M 
of KDE etc updates that appeared later. That finished about 01:00 so I just 
rebooted it to make sure that it would, powered down and went to bed.

This evening it started up OK, then I noticed that the time was off by an 
hour. I was just about to try to fix it when the screen went totally black, 
the hard drive started clattering like crazy, I thought DAMN IT IT'S CRASHED 
AGAIN! Then about a second later the screen came back, with the correct time 
and it's still working a couple of hours later.

Now to have a play and see what's new.

At least kwallet now starts up when it's told to!
