I have KDE 1 & 2 installed on several machines, including:
2 sparc Solaris 2.6, kde2.0
2 i386 desktop RH6.2, kde2.1 
ONE ThinkPad-X20 RH7.0, kde2.1

The thinkpad is the only one that locks up on me with any frequency.  It
doesn't seem to crash - the mouse moves (though clicks are ignored) &
the clock blinks.  There is just no way to get it to accept any user
input, including switching consoles.  Interstingly, one can
suspend/resume fine (though the UI is still ignoring input).

If inetd is running, I can telnet in & shutdown.  Otherwise, it's the
power switch.

Have you tried kde 2.1.1?  I have pulled down the SRPMS, but
unfortunately there are no binaries for some reason.  kde.org blames
RedHat...
