That doesn't necessarily follow.  There are known problems with the NVidia 
driver and KDE4 because KDE4 uses parts of the driver that were not previously 
used.  NVidia have acknowledged the problem and already done quite a lot of 
work on it.  It's possible that your driver still has issues.  To test that 
theory, back up your xorg.conf then change the driver to 'nv' and see whether 
the problem persists.  If it does you can revert to the version you are using 
now, but at least you will have eliminated one possibility.
