Did you receive help on this issue? Didn't see it until now. What happens
when you try to start kde?debian-knoppix@lists.debian.org
During some upgrades of kde it sometimes takes some hand editing of kdm to
keep kde working. This was an issue for me a while back while Debian Sarge
was still Testing, and a major version of kde entered Sarge.
Don't remember why, but somehow one desktop ended up running kde using gdm as
the window manager instead of kdm. Since kdm is a rather large config file,
you may want to try using gdm temporarily, if that works, until you can
workdebian-knoppix@lists.debian.org your way through the config file of kdm.
Have you checked the logs for errors in XFree86 or whatever the newest
versions of X knoppix is now using? Do you have a kdm directory in /var/log?
For example in the desktop where I have gdm as the controlling config file
even though I'm running kde, I don't have a kdm log file, but I do have a gdm
directory where I can look for error messages.
Is your sources list correct?
