Hi ShenLi,

I have crossed compiled Qt Embedded 4.5.0 for the MPC5121e board and experienced similar system crashes. They were happening after an image containing lots of white pixels (e.g. maximized QTextEdit widget) was written to the frame-buffer.

It seems to be a hardware problem and has nothing to do with Qt, I reproduced the crash from outside Qt by writing white pixels directly into the frame-buffer.

A temporary fix was to customize the Qt widgets, replacing the white background with a different color (e.g. light grey). 

Best regards,
Alex.
