I've tried 4 computers: 3 with intel gfx card and one with radeon. The radeon show login after logout again. The three onboard intel gfx did not: Black screen with 'standard' mouse cursor visible.

While merging my jaunty config changes to karmic I've found this (forgotten) hack/workaround that 'fixes' this problem for all 3 intel gfx hardware: After logout as root. e.g.,

   DISPLAY=:0 XAUTHORITY=/var/run/xauth/A:0-w764YP xrandr --output VGA1 --off
   DISPLAY=:0 XAUTHORITY=/var/run/xauth/A:0-w764YP xrandr --output VGA1 --auto

This results in one flicker, but works. Simple Patch for /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup appended.
(does not dynamicly check with xrandr output(s) to use.
