Sorry but in my case the Alt+Shift+F12 shortcut did not bring the windows back again. I've confirmed that it does disable compositing when windows are visible but as soon as the black screen occurs the only way out is Ctrl+Alt+Backspace.
I even renamed plasmarc and plasma-appletsrc and restarted with the default desktop but to no avail.
As a test I've now disabled "Improved Window Handling" in the KDE4 desktop settings. It seems to be much more stable with that setting turned off (a few other desktop effects are still turned on).
If it occurs again I'll try to narrow it down one-by-one if I can.
I also encountered this issue. When this occurred few mins ago, I couldn't get back usable desktop using alt+shift+F12. I had to restart kde using alt+backspace. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
