KDE blanks after switching from different resolution

Hi again everyone (only the second time I couldn't find answers in the docs - great work doc team!). The subject doesn't really explain my problem very well, as it only happens in specific situations. When exiting an application that uses a different resolution at fullscreen, and going back to KDE, all I get is a blank screen. Nothing works then, I try to Ctrl+Alt+Del and blindly exit to login or even restart/shutdown, nothing happens. The only solution is to switch to tty1 and restart KDM. Things got really interesting yesterday when I started Urban Terror, changed the resolution from default (800x600) to native (1366x768). Even though I had successfully changed resolutions within Urban Terror, I still got a blank screen in KDE. I can switch resolutions within KDE successfully though System Settings, so there's something else going on here.

Here are my specs:
Acer Aspire 1410 (similar to 1810T)
Intel Core 2 Solo 3500
Intel GMA 4500MHD

I've tried the following games:
Tremulous
StarCraft
Urban Terror

Re: KDE blanks after switching from different resolution

Bump.

I realize that the title may not be exactly what it reads, but it was the best I could think of at the time.

Anyways, nobody knows what's going on?
