This behavior was reproduceable on 2 different machines. It may be related to the proprietary NVIDEA driver (both machines have nvidea GAs), however xdm works fine. Downgrading kdm/KDE to the official openSUSE 13.1 released version (4.11.2) did not help. Using an older NVIDEA driver did not help. The problem appeared after the xorg-x11-server update (IIRC 25 Apr). I had to reinstall the NVIDEA driver to get back openGL support. Since then, kdm segfaults. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add the current KDE4 from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Current/openSUSE_13.1/ 2. Add the Update repo 3. Upgrade with zypper up. The installed versions of kdm, xorg-x11 and xorg-x11-server should match the ones below. Actual Results: After trying to log in (Typing username and password, then selecting "Start session" the kdm process segfaults, thus terminates. The parent kdm process forks again and you're back to the login dialog. Expected Results: After trying to log in (Typing username and password, then selecting "Start session": a working kde session kdm-4.11.9-1.1.x86_64 xorg-x11-7.6_1-11.3.1.noarch xorg-x11-server-7.6_1.14.3.901-8.1.x86_64 OpenGL version string: 4.4.0 NVIDIA 331.67 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

So did you really downgrade all of KDM/KDE to 4.11.2?
PS: You have to reboot your system to completely restart KDM. Just logging out is _not_ enough, there still will be the 4.11.9 version running even after the downgrade. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

@Wolfgang: the bug description seems to fit. In fact I am not starting a kde4 session but a kde3 one. But which .desktop file lacks these DesktopNames entry. I'd guess the ones with the DE description, located in /usr/share/xsessions ? Yes. In the case of KDE3 it's /usr/share/xsessions/kde.desktop, you should add the
