           Summary: KDE screwed after X server restart and subsequent
                    login/logout
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: Regnaron at web.de


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

Steps to reproduce:

1) Log into KDE
2) Restart the X server (CTRL + Alt + Backspace)
3) When automatically coming back to the login screen, log into KDE again
4) Log out again
5) Log in again
6) See that much of the desktop is screwed. Some examples are:
6a) All windows lack their border decoration
6b) The pager plasmoid in the taskbar shows only one desktop. This setting also
cannot be changed any longer

In order to remedy the problem, one has to restart the X server once again as
done in step 3. Subsequent login / logout attempts won't solve the problem.

As I witnessed problems with window decorations as well as with plasmoids
(pager), I am not exactly sure which part of KDE is at fault here. (kwin?)
