OK, I will give it a go. Unfortunately my sacrificial machine which I update to the latest of sid every morning is currently doing all kind of bad things after the upgrade. When I did the upgrade it would not automatically install kdebase-data and so I tried to install it manually. That said it would remove most of kde4 so, being a sacrificial machine I let it. I then reinstalled kde4 and it kept on crashing when it started up. ksmserver was aparently dying, so I deleted .kde/share/config/ksmserver and it now comes up. I had one or two old applets (such as kcpumon and knetworkmon or whatever they were called and I guess that one or other of those was causing it grief). Anyway not it comes up, but when I try to start anything, even konsole, it dies a horrible death, painting nasty striped on my vt1-6 consoles so that I can not even log on there. I suppose it might be that kaboom did not migrate something correctly, so the next thing I guess I will try is renaming .kde to something else (not .kde4) and trying that to see if it is simply an old configuration option that is causing the problem.
