Ok I don't see how I can consistently be running into this issue(even across different computers and Linux distros!) and no one else has ran into this. I'm still trying to fetch the KDE sources but am running into troubles due to ISP fair access limits. Hopefully by tomorrow I'll have them downloaded.

I usually set up my computers to automatically login to my account and to allow password-less logins. However I just checked if disabling those features fixed the problem with no luck.

I've just checked again on my Asus EEE 1000 (running Fedora 11 with KDE 4.2.4). Trying to change my name causes the System Settings to lock up(my desktop never locks up, it just gives the error as stated in the original bug report). If I were to guess wildly at what is going on, it seems that System Settings is trying to access some file it shouldn't need/be able to access. Tomorrow I'm going to a location with a better Internet connection so I should be able to actually look and see if I can dig up anything.
