Are you using an intel graphics chip? This was happening on my laptop about 6 
months ago, and I finally tracked it down to the intel driver crashing on 
logout. I use kdm, so a workaround for me was to add the line

TerminateServer=true

to the [X-:*-Core] section of the file /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc.

Hope that helps,
