I'm using debian with kde-trinity. I upgraded from squeeze to wheeze.
I looked yesterday into the package list and found few packages remainded 
still configured, so I cleaned all up.

OK thanks.
I revisited the .config and removed/added some options which were 
(not)recommended, compiled and rebooted. For now it was working fine all day 
long without an issue. If it keeps working it would be great. However I don't 
think it's worth to track it further down. It might have been some unlucky 
combination of events.
