Bug Description
I'm running Intrepid with Gnome as my desktop, but I have the Kubuntu packages installed and keep a Konqueror and (old KDE3) ksirc running on my Gnome desktop.
I wanted to try some KDE4 stuff so I did:
Xnest -ac :1 &
export DISPLAY=:1
startkde &
I got the KDE splash on the Xnest with the icons showing the progress of startup - and then stuff started appearing on my :0 main display; I got the filemanager appearing and KDE4 panels appearing over my GNOME ones and various windows moved about
I guess something somewhere decided to ignore DISPLAY and share something with a demon running on my main display.

Is this still an issue for you in Kubuntu 9.04?
