Black Screen after logout from Fluxbox

I use kdm and frequently (though not every time, almost) when I exit fluxbox into kdm, I get a black screen and the whole system hangs and pressing all sort of buttons (Ctrl-Alt Backspace / F1 / whatever) produces nothing. Apparently the workaround is to add to this file "/usr/kde//share/config/kdm/kdmrc)" this line:
TerminateServer=true

Or for gdm, this line:

AlwaysRestartServer=true

Got this from this website:
