Public bug reported:
After the recent upgrade to version 180.35 of the Nvidia xorg drivers on
Kubuntu Jaunty, numerous problems occur with KDE4.2 related to process
signals. Any child process of a Qt process cannot be killed by any
method except "kill -9" Any attempt to kill such a process will result
in the immediate zombification of the killing process. This, in turn,
causes numerous system problems. Most notably, some computers will not
log off, and the computer cannot be unlocked from screensaver mode.
Proof of this issue exists from a number of users who reported the issue
in the linux section of the nvnews.net forums.
