[trinity-users] Graphical logout drops to shell (no kdm)

Firstly, congratulations Trinity team for the new release!

Using newest 3.5.13, on Squeeze with all latest updates, installed on 3 
machines here as well as virtualbox setups.

On one machine's HD install (quite old SIS graphics) and on all using 
virtualbox OSE :

After logout from graphical screen the shell appears, no kdm greeter. I 
must login as root and do </etc/init.d/kdm-trinity reload> to get a 
login screen. <ps ax> shows kdm still running.

It doesn't happen with HD install on one machine with Intel and one with 
nvidia graphics. It did not happen with 3.5.12 anywhere.

I have found a workaround by uncommenting the line 
"TerminateServer=true" in /etc/trinity/kdm/kdmrc

Anyone else getting this? Bug?

Regards,
David
