    Does it throw any error message? Switch to tty2 ( Alt+Ctrl+F2 ) and execute startx command.

    Which command are you executing to install KDE? Are you installing KDM too?
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Linpus Lite is very limited(some would say crippled...) and I recommend replacing it with a real Linux distribution.

    For Acer Aspire One, there is probably nothing better than Ubuntu Easy Peasy.
    Everything works out the box: wireless, camera, codecs are preinstalled, flash is preinstalled and it has Firefox 3, OpenOffice 3, Pidgin,VLC and Songbird!!!
    You have to do NOTHING after the installation! It really rocks

    The installation is really easy and in case you have a question, everyone in the forums can help you, since Ubuntu (on which it is based) is probably the most popular Linux distribution.

    To make a live-usb you can use Unetbootin, which works on either Linux or Windows.
