Aargh! Must be the flu. What I'm saying is that when I boot, the box tries, 
but cannot get to the graphical login (kdm3) and dumps me at the cli. I then 
cannot get kde going with startx (it gives the same results). If X is 
starting, then it is dying as soon as it starts. Strange??

vncserver/vncviewer will not even start kde. I get the error:

"Could not start kdeinit. Check your installation."

when I open the vncviewer window. What other logs might help? Thanks.
