Well, the backtrace seems somewhat improbable my best guess right now is that prime somehow messes with dbus (which would be weird but hey).

The crash appears to not be caused by anything rational though:
    if (kcminitSignals) {
        connect( kcminitSignals, SIGNAL(phase2Done()), SLOT(kcmPhase2Done()));

kcminitSignals is a dbusinterface, it will be null if the interface is invalid after creation, or if kcminitSignals was deleted. so really there is no reason for it to crash there. at all.

Lacking understanding of how exactly a different gpu can cause this I'll move the bug to prime, perhaps someone more knowledable has ideas. To me it seems very random to the point that it may be a symptom of a completely different problem.
