Hi, I'm on archlinux and I've the same bug.
I searched and I I've saw the problem occurs in start_kdeinit_wrapper
from the startkde script. On a forum (sorry can't retrieve the address),
The man had the same problem and replacing start_kdeinit_wrapper by
kdeinit fixed it.
Not my case, however, I searched around start_kdeinit_wrapper, and
reading this source : http://code.woboq.org/kde/kdelibs/kinit …
per.c.html
<http://code.woboq.org/kde/kdelibs/kinit/start_kdeinit_wrapper.c.html> ,
I think it's just something like a launcher.
Thus, I looked at the argument "+kcminit_startup" given, and fell on
this page after googled it : http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.p …

<http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/386499-kcminit_startup-What-exactly-is-it>
like the author I don't know the purpose of this programme, so I tried
to comment these lines:
|328 # kdeinit unsets this variable before loading applications.
329 LD_BIND_NOW=true /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/start_kdeinit_wrapper
+kcminit_startup
330 if test $? -ne 0; then
331 # Startup error
332 echo 'startkde: Could not start kdeinit4. Check your installation.' 1>&2
333 test -n "$ksplash_pid" && kill "$ksplash_pid" 2>/dev/null
334 xmessage -geometry 500x100 "Could not start kdeinit4. Check your
installation."
335 exit 1
336 fi|
then the kde session starts from gdm. I didn't noticied any side-effect
for now except it's much faster than usual
