Sorry, Not rebooting, logging me out!
Fingers were in motion before mind was in gear!
Random logouts not random reboots.
Does this happen shortly after you've updated software and logged out
then in again? I've had this happen frequently but thought it was a KDE
problem related to systemd in some way. Essentially that logging out
wasn't waiting to kill processes that subsequently died after I logged
in, thus logging me out again. Logging in a second time always fixes
the problem.
