I'm sorry to hear that.  I've been lucky so far.  No significant
crashes, just bugs here and there.  The gtk-qt engine is driving me
nuts.  However, I've heard that problem is affecting all recent distros.

You have a separate Kubuntu Breezy *and* Ubuntu Breezy Install on the
same Hard Drive?

I have both combined. I've got K/Ubuntu with GNOME, KDE, XFCE, Fluxbox
and GNUStep/Windowmaker installed (I'm a desktop junkie, what can I say?
 ;-) ).

That is very odd.  I've never heard of anything like that before.  I'm
sorry I couldn't be of any help.

Good luck.
