A complete reboot like that might be software jumping to the wrong
address but, if so, it seems to me that it's more likely caused by how
you've built the machine and not the software itself having a bug. KDE
& Firefox are very widely used. Why should you hit this bug and not
everyone else? None the less publish everything required for people to
hep, emerge --info, contents of all /etc/portage/package.* files,
/var/lib/portage/world, rc-update show results, etc. Maybe someone
will see it when you haven't. I don't think it's the nvidia-settings
stuff if you haven't run nvidia settings.
On the other hand, it's new hardware which is where I'd put my bet. A
flaky power supply. A funky motherboard. Bad CPU cooling causing
overheating. Memory problems that are as of yet uncovered by
memtest86.
Bummer...
