the only solution is reset the computer :(
've seen this problem as well on an older machine running F10 and KDE.
I'm running an old (5700) NVidia card which has a lot of issues.
First of all, I have to use a beta driver to have it compile against the
current kernel (using the proprietary blob driver). An NVidia forum post
for that can be found here:

Second, there apparently an issue with backing store. I had to enter the
following line in the xorg.conf Screen section to fix it.
Option "BackingStore" "false"
If I didn't do the above two things, the following would happen.
1. Could not compile the driver (173.14.12 does not work with the new
kernel)
2. Right-mouse click to open a konsole (with the 173.14.15 driver) would
crash X 100% of the time.
Hopefully the above information is of some use.
