Bug#258938: If fam has hung KDE fails to startup

[Anton Ivanov <arivanov@sigsegv.cx>]

Package: kde
Version: 4:3.1.2
Severity: important

If FAM has hung (which happens after the most recent dist-upgrade) 
KDE fails to start. There are no error messages and no diagnostics.
It hangs on the "initializing system devices phase". Restarting fam
fixes it.
