KDE Desktop crash at login

Hello, I am using the KDE version budled with Fedora Core 6 (KDE Help Center says version 3.5.6-0.3.fc6) on a Dell Latitude 600 laptop. I upgraded my RAM from 128MB to 256MB and KDE crashed after logging in. The desktop goes black and a KDE crash message box pops up. The menu and panel at the bottom are still accessible and I can use the GUI to log out or shut down. I put the 128MB memory back in, and KDE starts up fine. Does anyone know of any configuration that needs to happen after changing memory or if this is a known bug?

No configuration should be required for a piece of additional memory. I think the 256 MB module is hosed somehow.

But a backtrace could be useful if you can generate one.
