hi, thanks for your help. I tried that out but it didn't work. To know the problem in more detail, goto http://www.techspot.com/vb/all/windows/t-36439-Cant-get-KDE-to-start-after- login-screen.html
My problem is exactly same as given on this web page and I got similar log messages in Xorg.0.log file also.
So you can start an X server ( X :1& works from the text console ) but you can't start KDE from it.
Nor can you start KDE by hand with startx as I suggested.
Can you start KDE as suggested by the third post by 'Nodsu' on that page?
$ X :1& $ export DISPLAY=:1 $ startkde
If not, what is the output of startkde at the terminal?
Can't speak to 9.3 and other desktops but on 10.1 with KDE, if your ".fonts.cache-2" file somehow is corrupted, the results will be the same. Deleting or renaming it will allow you to log back in.
