Constantinos Koukos, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Thank you for your understanding.

Trying to explicit start the kwin reports that no X server is not running. Trying to start the X server explicit leads to a blank (black) screen. When power down (button press) i can see the init cursor of the X server (X) instantly and then i am directed to the console again for something like a second and then to the blue GUI screen with the kubuntu logo prompting to remove CD. In both cases of start-up and shut-down the GUI screens with the logo of kubuntu are shown. Hardware Information : VGA compatible controller : ATI Technologies Inc RV730 PRO [Radeon HD 4650] Host bridge : ATI Technologies Inc RD790 Northbridge only dual slot PCI-e_GFX and HT3 K8 part Audio device : ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) Audio device : ATI Technologies Inc R700 Audio Device [Radeon HD 4000 Series] CPU : AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor Motherboard : MSI 790FX-GD70 (790FX Northbidge) Notice that the 9.10 version of kubuntu works fine on that hardware. Also notice that in the working 9.10 version i am using a custom kernel 2.6.32 (official) with custom built fglrx 8.712 (ATI 10.3 official driver). In the 9.10 release i had similar problems with the 10.2 ATI driver. So i assume that is either the X Server or some faulty driver package (if any is used). The X.Org X Server 1.6.4 of previous version seems to work fine with both 2.6.32 kernel and the latest ATI fglrx drivers (with the exception of 10.2) I hope this info is useful for a better release.
