Is there a reason you suggested creating the link, rather than just editing lines in xinitrc? I'm not really good at implications unless they're spelled out, or I trip over them.
Functionally there's no difference, you could have solved your problem either way. It's just that if I have a choice between editing a script or creating a symlink, I'll go for the symlink.
The symlink is the 'correct' solution anyway, since the rpm should have created one, and I suspect the next update will again

Look at the bin folders that Anders' symlink use. Make sure you have the kde and kdeinit or whatever the file should be, sitting there. I have deleted his message so I dont have it in front of me. Anyway, on my machine the files were missing so the link didnt do anything. I had to reinstall the kde stuff to get it all back. I think the problem came in when some files were deleted before the upgrade happened and those files were never reinstalled. So far my only problem has been on my laptop. The other machines upgraded without a hitch. Go figure. On the laptop I had to downgrade back to 3.3.3 to get it all working again. Richard
