I tried to run systemctl isolate commands as it's suggested in a different thread (audio config) and I have a feeling that it doesn't work as expected.
I use openSUSE 13.1 with KDE3 desktop and kdm3 login manager.
Just try init 3, init 5, those commands are supported.
I never run them from inside a graphical terminal. I first log out of X, go to console, login as root, do it - I do not expect a process started on a terminal that is going to be killed to end properly.
It is possible that some user processes remain, so I kill them manually. I even have a little script to kill the typical recalcitrants
IOW, runlevel switching in 13.1 using KDE3 is broken now, as it has been ever since 13.1 release, probably since 12.3 or before. Post-11.4 I've always just rebooted when wishing to get to 3 from 5. It's simpler than figuring out what didn't get stopped and dealing with it. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
