hello everybody from Argentina, I have the same problem, i don't know how, But i fix it editing the xorg.conf, really it was an accident i was trying to configure the tv-out, but the fist boot i saw that kde start whit a different resolution (it was too much for my Syncmaster) and refresh ratio (NOT the classic 43hz ¬¬), I change this in the Xorg.conf restart and, it's magic Kde start whit 1024x768 _85hz.
