Strange standstill with KDE-Shutdown

Hi everyone, I have only noticed this behaviour on my Notebook (Acer TM 803), so I write to the laptop list. On my Desktop (same Knoppix-Debian-Install) there is no such error. Description: When I choose to logout from my KDE session, the screen goes black and the laptop stands still. No reaction
