I just tried the Kaleidoscope preview for about a minute before replying 
to your post and it worked just fine.  Could be there are a swarm of 
separate bugs that are dependent on things like the specific video card, 
nv driver vs. Nvidia binary driver, amount of installed memory, speed of 
the box, phase of the moon, etc.  I'll try running just Kaleidoscope for 
a while and see if I get a lock up.
