Hmmmm, strange....... in my home directory, there is no ".xinitrc" file. Why ?
I thought that the first time X is run and quit properly, the ".xinitrc" file gets written to the user's home directory.
Maybe that is my problem. X may not be very smart.

You didn't say how you started KDE, but I would suggest adding the following to your ~/.xinitrc file.
quartz-wm --only-proxy &
source /sw/bin/init.sh
export KDEWM=kwin
/sw/bin/startkde > tmp/kde.log 2>&1
It will then automatically start properly when you start X11

Just installed Fink for the first time with no problems.
My system profile is:
Mac G5 Dual 2.0 gig
2 gig memory
OS X 3.3
Standard Apple USB mouse
Fink .70
I installed the current version of KDE from the Binary.
All went well. I booted KDE and did the "initial" little setup
that comes up the first time you run KDE with no problem.
My problem started when the KDE desktop appears just
after that little initial setup. When the actual desktop appears
for the first time, I have no real mouse control. The cursor
changes to a hand. I can move the mouse around the desktop
but can "Not" click on anything that I should be able to.
The only way I can control anything is through the "Keyboard".
Any help in this matter would be appreciated.
Cheers to All.
