Hi,
I had the same problem with kdm, but no problem with gdm.
cheers

Hi. Installing gdm did not do the trick :(
You must uninstall the kdm service first and select in the session selector of gdm "kde". If you don't select the session type, get some errors.
I uninstalled kdm and selected kde as a session but I got the same message telling me that my session lasted lower than 10s and bla bla..
When doing startx as a normal user from console I get some errors like "xkb could not initialize" and "Xinit: no such file or directory" and "Xinit: Could not connect to xserver"....
Have you stopped the kdm first?
Yes I did stop kdm when I tried that. The strange thing is that if I login as root from console and do a startx then a kde session starts normally. If I do that as a normal user I get the errors..
Some friend told me to purge kde and reinstall it. I don't think this will help. Do you think I should give it a try?
I tried that with no success :-(
If that didn't help you I will not bother..
