In case of SIS graphics trouble go to http://www.winischhofer.net As far as that behaviour goes: I don't have a laptop but a still a cheap sis and if it is configured wrong there will be nothing gui - no login manager or anything at all but a black screen or some nice stripes. If you get a login manager and can't get kde to work you might want to look into other sources for that problem.
