[Bug 415482] [NEW] KDM Log Out = Blank Screen

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdm

I am using Kubuntu 9.04 (64-bit) with the final KDE 4.3.0 packages from
the Kubuntu backports on my Dell Inspiron 15n (that shipped with Ubuntu
preinstalled).

For some reason, when I log out I get a black screen. ALT+CTRL+F1 and
ALT+CTRL+Backspace does nothing. I have to hold down the power button to
get out of this black screen. As long as I log in directly to KDE, and
then choose "shut down" when done, I never have any issues. If I log out
to go back to KDM and choose a different user, I cannot do that since I
see a black screen instead.

I did follow the instructions below to enable the correct Intel drivers for Jaunty:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582

Those instructions fix all the issues that Jaunty has with Intel cards,
so I suspect that something there may be causing this.

Please let me know what I may need to provide.
