[opensuse] unable to login normal user under KDE4
I succeeded tp install opensuse 11.1 without problems, but this was under KDE3.5 . However, when trying to install it with the new KDE4 I am not able to login as a normal user. Logging in as root succeeds all right, but as a normal user I can only login in a console. Trying to login under X fails: the screen vanishes for a second or so, and comes back with the same login- screen. Anyone a suggestion how to login under X. and/or a suggestion how to solve this?

Is there anything in your ~/.xsession-errors file? Also maybe drop to init 3 and then run startx and see if it will spit out an error. Also see if anything is in /var/log/messages. We need some more information Did you wipe out your /home when you reinstalled? if not try renaming ~/.kde4 and then restarting X. -- Michael S.

To test you can create a new user and log-in. If that works, some of your configs are the cause for your problem. You can move .kde4 and try again, if that works, you can either start from scratch or move back the config files you need one by one and check which one caused the issues. If you find it, you should file a bug and attach it, in order for the developers to check whether there is a bug and how it can be fixed.
