The program that draws the window borders and titlebars, and also handles 
placing, resizing, moving etc. is called kwin. If it crashes for some reason 
you can try restarting it from konsole (as I suggested earlier). This will 
most likely fail for the same reason as it failed to start when you logged 
in, but it should at least tell you why.
