Even with Ctrl + Alt + F1 (or F2) ?
If not, try rebooting and then go into GRUB as it loads (hit esc) and try the
recovery mode. I *think* that drops you into a console. From there try
running : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
Answer all the questions as best as you can and then try run KDE with: startx

To reboot when you are in trouble like that try:
Ctrl + SysRq + R = Raw keyboard mode
Ctrl + SysRq + U = Unmount stuff (give it a moment to work)
Ctrl + SysRq + B = Reboot.
SysRq is the key with "Print Screen" on it. I know it's one heck of a stretch
across the keyboard, I use both hands :)
