Thanks for the report - bug reports are always useful.
A few questions:
 * Did you try compiling Tw yourself (it's really quite simple on
Ubuntu; see
http://code.google.com/p/texworks/wiki/Building#Ubuntu_%28Hardy_and_later%29_&_Debian)?
The reason I ask is that I never tested Tw on KDE, so there may be
problems hidden there.
 * What do you mean by "it hangs"? Apparently, you were able to compile
the document, so there must have been some way to interact with the
application.
 * Are the hangs repeatable (e.g. always happen with one document, but
not with another)?
