The ubuntu forums link helped some. In /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc , I set: TerminateServer=true
That brought back the login screen when I log out. However, if I switch to the console (ctrl-alt-f1) and try to switch back (ctrl-alt-f7) then I get the blank, black screen again. Restarting kdm brings it back again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773073 Title: kdm hangs upon logout _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
