Yes, it works.
Good. That means KDE is somehow preventing itself to be properly shutdown. Maybe a proccess in the background making noise? :-? >>2/ And then you can try to logout by running "killall kdeinit" or simply >>"kdekillall" (recheck these commands, maybe your version of KDE also >>allows another method to get the job done by means of "dcop >>something-to- logout") :-) > > OK. For the "new" user there is no "kdekillall", whereas "killall > kdeinit" says there is no such a process. What I do for now is killing > all the user process that includes all the KDE-related stuff. Okay, then try with the "old" method: go to a tty (ctrl+alt+f1), log in as root and fall into "init 1", that will close your current X session. Then "su -" as your user, and run "startx". Once in, try to logout as usual, from the K menu. >>> Just nothing happens - the dialog window vanishes away and that's it - >>> I can still use the session. It is the same for both.

IIRC, this error was not present for the new user, right? That may mean that you have to reset/resit your current kde user profile, but for the kde desktop I dunno what folder to rename, hum... maybe some KDE user of the list can give you some hints on this :-?
