Description Tony White 2009-02-16 22:13:55 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

System settings - Session manager - Confirm logout unselected = kdm looping on logout with no return to the kdm login screen.
The x cursor is just there, Can be moved around and is just displaying busy on a black screen.

I have to ctrl + alt + F1 To get to a console to do anything now that ctrl + alt + backspace is automatically disabled in the xorg configuration.

Sorry, I had to laugh at this one. I don't know why it's funny. :)
I just tried it, Turned confirm logout off and selected logout from kickoff and the system shutdown. :)
It works but I think I wanted to logout. lol.

@Tony: check, what's your default leave option ;) (Session Manager), taht's for the shutdown/log out part

Comment 4 Tony White 2009-08-05 18:06:05 UTC

It works!
Please close this report, kde 4.3 doesn't seem to suffer from this at all. :)
Thanks,
Tony

I use Kubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala, KDE 4.3.0-0ubuntu3. I approve that kdm (or may be Xserver) crashes on choosing logout action. Display show me a console screen.
