+ Launching Firefox (from the KDE panel) sporadically causes a kernel Oops (Null pointer dereference) in drm_debugfs_remove_files (output is attached).
  The system continues to run, and after returning to the desktop session by switching away from the vt and back again, Firefox is actually running.
+ 
+ EDIT: The bug appears since the upgrade to oneiric, both with Firefox 7
+ and now 8.
