KDE keeps bugging out.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

There are systems where killall does just that (kills all processes). If you get used to it and end up on one of those, it could end up poorly.
pkill kills by matching the process name. So that's probably what you want. You probably want to use the -HUP (hangup) signal at first (it may send that by default, not sure) before using a kill.
