hmmm.m.. lots of bad, bad KDE related errors here =/Yep, typing X did keep running ok..I tried it yesterday, not really knowing what it was for <grin> but it did work. I will try your suggestion r&r'ing the kde rpms. Makes sense!
log in on the console and try typing X and then press enter
it should come up with a plain grey X screen. if so, and it doesn't die, then the problem isn't with X at all.
Thanks Aaron

if that is the case, then try this: remove ALL the kde rpms (e.g. do a urpme kdelibs) and reinstall all the kde rpms (easiest way: cd to the RPMS directory on disc one of your MDK install CDs and do a urpmi *kde*rpm)
see if that helps any... i remember lots of people having problems upgrading and the easiest thing to do was to remove all the KDE rpms first and install the new ones ..
when MDK first released their KDE3 RPMs there were all sorts of upgrade problems with them (they botched the upgrade path from KDE2 => KDE3)
