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.
 
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?
 

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 :-(
