(Get the code!)
I've noticed this problem with every release. Let me quantify that by saying, when I install the NVIDIA drivers manually (I'm not using packaged drivers) and I logout of my system, KDM fails, and I get black screen. CRTL+ALT+BACKSPACE does not restart X, instead I have to swtch to a terminal login, and restart KDM that way. I've only noticed this problem with manually installed NVIDIA drivers, and I've experienced this on Dapper, Fesity, and Hardy. I'm using the NVIDIA 96.43 version drivers- and I have two versions of Kubuntu running. I am running i386 with Feisty, and x86_64 with Hardy.
I dont' know where to start with where to look- anyone know of any log files I can check on to see if something is crashing?
I can't comment on whether or not this problem occurs using packaged drivers because I always manually install them when I do a fresh install of any release.
