Tested it now; in my machine the greeter screen is still black
after returning from a console vt.

No; as I mentioned, it's a Radeon HD 6320.
Wondering if tweaking some specific X parameter could somehow force
'refreshing' (if, as it seems, the greeter is actually there but invisible).

Anyway, following the suggestion in
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1665405
I uncommented
  TerminateServer=true
in /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc and now the greeter shows up nicely after logut
(maybe also generically useful (in a preventive way) in order to get a
'cleaner' restart?).

Best regards
