Here is my cookbook on disabling Compositing in KDE4 when starting from
OpenSUSE Live CD.

1) boot from Live CD (USB stick)
2) Select F3-> Text (Video) in GRUB
3) boot in text mode to console
4) login as 'root'
5) mv /home/linux/.kde4 /root/.kde4
5) edit kwinrc as described in Comment 23
you need to add section
[Compositing]
Enabled=false

as it is missing

6) Switch to runlevel 5 
#init 5
7) KDE4 would start.

Good news:
Dialog "Starting Akonadi server" would appear on the screen and than disappear.
I also hear startup sound.

BAD NEWS:
After few seconds KDE4 would again hang.
It doesn't respond to keyboard, so it's not possible to switch to Terminal 1.

What would be next step to debug this problem?
