Bug Description

I have installed ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-kde4-desktop. I have installed fglrx driver by jockey. Now when I try to log out from KDE or KDE4 I get black screen and I have to press ctrl -alt- del. If I try to log out from Gnome I get only Ubuntu background image and I have to press ctrl -alt -del too. I have Asustek M6VA Laptop and Ati Mobility Radeon X700 graphic card. If I change login manager to gdm I don't have this error.

I have a similar issue with logging out - but it only appears if I want to log out from a kde3 session, but not from a kde4 session.

If I log out of a kde3 session, then the screen gets black and nothing happens. Even crtl-alt-del doesn't work. The only way is to log on to a virtual console and restart kdm (kdm3).

kdm log out works with Gnome and KDE3, but KDE4 logging in and out showed white screen and I had to restart computer by ctrl+alt+del. kdm-kde4 works right in logging in, but logging out freezed computer and it have to reboot by keyboard. It doesn't work in Gnome and in KDE. I hope you fix these problems before release because it's not very good advertisement to Ubuntu.
