I don't recall, offhand, and don't have access to a Gnome system to
check, but I think Gnome has an "auto start" function, similar to KDE's
using $HOME/.kde/Autostart to run apps you want available when you login.
Perhaps you could start a terminal, run the KDE app in the background
and do a ps to get the KDE related support services listed. You could
add these to the auto start list.
The only thing I don't know is if these 'support services' can start
stand alone or if a front end KDE app. is needed.
If this does work but things are still too slow, you might add a local
rc startup script in /etc/{init.d,rc2.d} to start the services at boot time.
None of this is tested, just some thoughts on alternate ways to get
things going.
