Make sure your file systems have been successfully repaired.
It's useful to boot into single user mode and perform a fsck
of all partitions _prior_ to continuing the boot process.
Note that a background fsck could still be running while you
try to restart KDE with an underlying inconsistent filesystem.
To intendedly avoid booting into a possibly dirty filesystem
environment, put background_fsck="NO" into /etc/rc.conf, but
note that, depending on the size of your disks, startup time
will probably increase dramatically. :-)

Still it's hard to imagine how a file system defect could cause
that immediate kind of kernel panic...
