When I boot the karmic Koala Desktop CD, the KDE splash screen loops.
During the first loop all icons appear. Then the screen turns black and the KDE splash screen starts over, displaying the first icon. From now on it loops endlessly: 1st icon - black screen - 1st icon ...
Probably the X server crashes again and again.
No response to keyboard or mouse except the following keys:
Ctrl-Alt-F1 (does not display text terminal #1 as expected, but weird blocks of color).
Ctrl-Alt-F7 returns me to the KDE splash screen loop"

I think KDE won't work with my computer 'standard' chipset which is Via s3g Unichrome IGP KM400/KN400/P4M800[S3 Unichrome]
Note that is ok with Gnome version.
