Can't you try switching to a new virtual console, and logging in? That 
     works for me. loging, killall xdm or just run halt.

Hi,
     
I'm experiencing a similar problem. I have KDM running on my PC and because 
my graphics card is not supported yet (S3 Trio 3D) I have to work with the 
VGA16 server. That way I work in the lowest resolution possible.
When I try to logout, KDM gives the login screen but the "console window" is

partially in front of the login screen. Of course, just where the buttons 
are. So, I can't click the Shutdown button and I have to switch off my PC. 
This causes the LILO booter to force a harddisk check every time I start up 
(and on this takes some time).
     
I also would like a solution for this. Does somebody know a way out ?
     
thanks,
     
Claude Ostyn
