    Are you logging in from KDM or from the CLI?

    You can boot into the CLI by editing /etc/inittab and changing
    Code:
    id:5:initdefault:
    to
    Code:
    id:3:initdefault:
    Try the following,
    Code:
    echo "startkde" > ~/.xinitrc
    echo "startkde" > ~/.xsession
    After that try logging into KDE using KDM or by running startx from the CLI.
