hi all,
there is an observation with regards to KDE manager (i am not sure if others behave similarly). if you put the machine in screen saver mode (password protected ) and press ctl+alt+bs then xwin gets killed (actually it should not because autherization is not confirmed) and gives open access to the account! (even if it was logging the user out it would have been fine).
is there anyway to stop this?

If you started kde by doing startx from the console, then yes, it will return to the console. What you want to do, is disable Zap in XF86Config. Just uncomment Option DontZap
Alternately, make sure you don't have any open consoles. when you startx, do it in the background:
$ startx &
Then use Ctrl+Alt+F1 to go to first console, and logout from there.
Alt+F7 to get back to X.
