Secondly, I apologise for not being totaly clear in my first post. I do remember seeing the same symptons occur as described by the origional poster, Ola Theander ie. on shutdown of KDE. However, I was trying to indicate that the same problem has occured at other times. The point that I did not make clear was that this occurs when switching between vt's ie from, for example, tty1 back to an already running X on tty7 (F7).
