As root or user, if I am in init 2, WINDOWMANAGER=kde2 startx, KDE2 starts perfectly, remembers changes I make and exits cleanly. Does it really remember changes? I do the same (with the files for my suse 6.4 from the suse site installed) and it doesn't remember changes.
What kind of CHANGES are you talking about? Every thing I've done in KDE2 environment has still been there when I returned. What CHANGES are you refering to?
If I change the theme for kde2 or the monitor power management, kde2 is able to remember that. But, particullarly, if I change the size, position and auto-hide option of the panel, or the screensaver, I get again the defaults in the next sesion.
Thanks
The setup info for the size, position, and auto-hide option of the panel is written to a file called /home/user/KDesktop/share/config/kickerrc which is read by the kicker program which is lit off by kdeinit along with a whole lot of other programs when kde2 starts. Do you have all these programs running after logging in to kde2?
This is the output from a "ps -ax | grep kde" 336 ? S 0:00 /opt/kde/bin/kdm 393 ? S 0:00 sh --login /opt/kde2/bin/startkde 441 ? S 0:00 kdeinit: dcopserver 443 ? S 0:00 kdeinit: klauncher 445 ?

S 0:00 kdeinit: Running... 497 ? S 0:00 kdeinit: kwrited 504 ? S 0:00 kdeinit: kwin 517 ? S 0:01 kdeinit: konsole
All of these should be running.
