Bug Description

Using Kubuntu 7.10.
I go to system settings -> Advanced -> login manager -> shutdown and in the field Boot Loader, i select grub.
After reboot, now when i press on restart button for a few seconds, a list of all OS registered in grub appears in order to reboot directly into that OS, but at select a OS, the screen freeze.
This bug was reported some time ago and it continues without fix, i think it shouldn't be hard to fix.
Please fix it as soon as possible.
I attach an screen capture of the moment of freeze in order to your know what i am talking about.

Good afternoon,

I am wondering if you are still having problems with a logout crash in Kubuntu 7.10 or not? Please update this bug to reflect the status so we can get some more attention to solving the problem.

Thanks,

First, i think this bug is always fully reproduccible in any computer.
It continues in Gutsy and Hardy KDE 3 version.
I think it is caused by the patch applied to Kubuntu logout screen in order to make it more beautiful. In other distributions without that patch, this bug is not present.
