Why don't you post the content of your .xinitrc?
That's the issue, I don't have an .xinitrc. Could you post a "go by" from a
working install?
Are you trying to launch /opt/kde/bin/startkde from the shell?
startkde has to be launched within a X display.
For example put /opt/kde/bin/startkde in your ~/.xinitrc.
Start copying the .xinitrc in /etc/skel to your home directory.
OK, I think I remember seeing a default .xinitrc in one of the wiki pages, but
I can't recall which one. I'll go back and look again.
I'll be working on this for this mornings project.
Thanks Alessandro!
You really don't need a .xinitrc. You should just be able to start the
kdm3 daemon, and then KDM will let you choose the specific window
manager you want to login with.
