I removed kdm and I was able to start kde, but I soon got it ot crash again by messing about with my kde kpanel settings. My current setup is:-   kernel 2.4.18 xfree4.2.sid latest nvidia geforce2 mx400 M7MKE motherboard with vt82c686 & vt8371 SMC 1211 series 10/100 network card   here is a recent .xsession-errors:-   >>>snip DCOPServer up and running. _IceTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.ICE-unix should be set to root QObject::connect: No such signal KDockArea::docked() QObject::connect: (sender name: 'unnamed') QObject::connect: (receiver name: 'view widget') QToolBar::QToolBar main window cannot be 0.
