This is a kind-of-known bug in the KDM scripts. (which was fixed in the
latest and greatest 2.2.0-final3).
You can try to specify your session type (say "kde2") instead of leaving the
"default"; it usually works.
If not, you can create a .xsession file in your home directory (man Xsession)
For the error messages, you can look at .xsession-errors in your home dir.
Hope this helps,
