The problem is probably that your process chain is broken on the return 
side.  What ever the front end, it should run a script: "Xsession" which 
should contain the command:

     exec /opt/KDE-4.5/bin/startkde

{with the path for your system}

Note that you must use the full path.

Then: "startkde" will replace the: "Xsession" process and when it ends 
it should be the same as a return from: "Xsession"

If you are not using the: "exec" command, you should have:

     /opt/KDE-4.5/bin/startkde
     end

IAC, the problem is probably in the: "Xsession" script.
