Hello all,
Just need some help in verifying where a reproducible bug is.
I will just post what I have encountered and I expect the majority of
you to not have the same problem unless you have the same hardware I
have got.
1) Install Kubuntu Jaunty and update to the latest packages and install
and enable sshd. Boot latest kernel.
2) Login. Logout. Login. Logout. Screen now goes blank, keyboard does
not respond anymore, ctrl+alt+backspace does not kill X.
3) ssh into box. 'sudo killall -HUP kdm' to 'resolve' blank screen after
second logout attempt. Login screen should now appear.
Those interested in the kdm log, please go here:

VGA chip in question: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA
Technologies, Inc. KM400/KN400/P4M800 [S3 UniChrome] (rev 01)
Please do post back if you get the same problem but with different
hardware/driver otherwise I will assume that this is an openchrome bug.
Thanks
