Could be loads of stuff breaking here, I suggest you try if it's:
Problems with the permissions of various temporary directories (for ICE and X for example).
A broken X-session in /etc/X11/Sessions/.

well it was working earlier and a friend messed with the login and the wifi drivers thats why i think its the init scripts so i forgot to ask where they were again cuz id know the folder if i saw the na,e
EDIT:
ok well i can start kdm now but when i login WITH a normal user not root and the right password(because it didnt say login failed) i click login and the screen flashes and goes back to kdm asking for my pass kde still wont start |
