[Cooker] 9beta3 - DrakConf - Interesting behavior upon change resolution

[allen]

Somehow or another during Install, admitedly Expert Mode, 
things ended up being 640x480 although I'm quite sure that
1024x768 65K colors was selected, tested and fine during 
install...

So anyway, I go and run drakconf.

I select the very nice System, X Resolution and change the 
setting to 1024x768 65K colors.

It informs me that I should "relog in to Kwin" for changes to take effect.

1.  That should read a little different "logout of KDE, restart X, and log 
back in again."  something different. "relog in" doesn't work for me ;)

2.  It automatically launches whatever it is as if I had done Menu, Logout.

It then stops KDE and X.

I then have command prompts in text mode available on the virtual 
terminals, ctrl-alt-f[1..6]

I have to login in text mode.

Then I have to startx.

Now I am back on-line.

That was odd.  I was expecting X to restart and bring back up the 
graphical login.
