I would like to know that you think of it, if patches are available and if it can be returned to the dear 3.5.8. see you later matrobriva.sorry for my little english !!! 
I had the same problem until I upgraded it to KDE 4.1.3, is a bit more stable.
Here the post I found how to update it:
tank you!!!
