(It pains me to say) KDE and broken logout

[Paul Michael Reilly]

First let it be known that I read every last character of the original 
dreadful thread as a result of logout not working for me using the RC3 
F8 bits (the live Fedora and KDE x86_64 spins).  And I've confirmed that 
my issue is definitely not GDM vs KDM.

The behavior I see after installing the KDE spin is that logout works 
perfectly after I login for the first time.  After the second and 
subsequent logins I  get empty air (nothing happens) when I click on the 
Logout menu item.

I'll try posting a bug report (again) after traffic on redhat.com 
subsides.  Meanwhile, I've switched back to F7 since either no KDE or no 
SUSPEND are both non-starters.  But I do intend to dust off another 
laptop/desktop to install Rawhide and gather more information on the 
problem.  To that end I'm open to suggestions for troubleshooting the issue.

The problem is aRts - or, more specifically, artsshell, which
runs when 
aRts is supposed to be shutting down... except for some reason, it never 
seems to get around to that, leaving a black screen.

Or are you referring to something else?

Since I'm not getting a black screen, I'm guessing it is something else. 
  For me, clicking on the Logout menu item had no effect at all.

Already fixed, afaik, is your box fully up to date?  (We released a few
0-day updates).

In particular, was knetworkmanger-0.2-0.7 fixing
