Sounds like a jpeg lib problem. Check your X error log to see what KDE is
complaining about.
startx -- -whatever_you_use 2> /var/log/X.log
then take a look at /var/log/X.log
If its complaining about a mismatch in the jpeg libs, you may need to
recompile KDE for your system, alternatively, remove existing jpeg lib and
install the required one (KDE will tell you which ver it needs in the
log).
Alternatively,
ldd /path_to_kde(normally /opt/kde)/kwm
that should give you a list of libs that it needs. Install/replace
whatever libs it says are not found. You can also try ldd'ing any of the
other binaries, they should tell you whats missing as well.
Hope this helps
