[Bug 557599] [NEW] KDE desktop crashes out to a command line screen

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Every few days (but twice so far today, within 30 minutes of logon, both
of which are unusual - it is usually after a few hours), KDE crashes and
I end up on a command line screen. I did not try on this occasion, but
normally I can log on at that screen. While I do that the screen
sometime blanks and comes back - I think it may be trying to switch to
another virtual terminal, eg where KDE should be. I can "service kdm
restart" but it does not work.

I can turn the machine off using its power button. It appears to close
down cleanly - no disk checks when I turn it back on.

I am using Kubuntu 10.04 Desktop beta 2, last patched yesterday evening,
on an eeePC 901.
