Dirk,
Below is this ~/.xsession-errors. There isn't a ~/.X.err and top was
uneventful with nothing stuck and just the normal Xorg and ksplash momentarily
appearing. I do think you are narrowing it down quite a bit. the xsession-error
looks promising. I have also included the dump of 'ps axf' showing the number
of kdeinits running. I used killall kdeinit to clean that up.
Same symptoms though. Somewhere kde is hanging. After the killall kdeinit,
an kwrited style dialog appeared over the splash screen and told me that the
session could not be initialized. I closed it and then hit ctrl+alt+backspace
to get back to kdm. Here is the ~/.xsession-errors:
[01:41 nirvana/home/david] # cat .xsession-errors

I will attach the 'ps axf' info after I post this. Thanks and let me know what
else you want.
