hey gang, I've been plagued by this error for a while on our network. When a user tries to login they get: (1) "Could not start kstartupconfig. Check your installation" Followed closely by: (2) "Could not start kdeinit. Check your installation" Under the condition that the home directories aren't mounted users will always get message (1). Both messages appear in some unknown condition. This is usually fixed by having the user login using a different window manager than KDE and then switching back to KDE. However that hasn't brought me any closer to the root cause of the problem. In most cases this is something I have had to do once per user. After moving our user directories to a new filesystem our users are constantly having this issue and have to switch window managers after each reboot. If anyone can offer even a glimpse I can probably shake a solution out.
