If the text console comes back it means the Xserver has crashed. The display manager doesn't terminate it itself. I don't see any indication of a crash in comment #21.

This is a bug in kdm, [...] So it can be closed as duplicate.
This part of this report may be a duplicate. But there is as well the nv driver issue. Egbert wanted to track this issue here, see: (In reply to comment #30 from Egbert Eich)
So the kdm coming down is a separate issue. Let's deal with the NV driver issue first. I found a system where I can reproduce the issue.
Sorry Stefan, I give this one back to Egbert. Btw. its my machine with a Geforce 6600 where we found that the nv driver does not work. Egbert told me that you might be interested to see this. -- 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.

Please advise bug number for kdm bug, thanks. Sorry, I can't find this bug any longer. Thus I reassigned this bug to KDE component. This is probably the only way to figure it out. :-(
