Yes, no issues with kde 4.2.0. What happened is I'd upgraded to the bad

4.2.0 to 4.2.1. One weird side-effect of the 4.2.1 upgrade is that I
lost my plasma desktop layout. No biggy, I just added the plasmoids
back. Then I noticed the lancelot cpu usage issue. I have not noticed
any behavior problems. Kde 4.2 has been rock solid.
I followed the exact same steps (even the nvidia upgrade-downgrade cycle) on
my notebook with no problems whatsoever. The only difference is I have ~amd64
~x86 system

All I can think to try is to move my ~/.kde4.2 directory and let it
regenerate.
That's a good quick easy check. At least we'll know if it's a code or a config
issue
Looks like it was a config type issue with something in ~/.kde4.2.
Thank you for helping me work thru it.
