Well, piddling aroudn this is what I have managed
to do.....
almsot nothin
I logged in as bill in console and "startx" then in
my xserver term i typed kde2.. lo and behold kde2 loads in odd little peices...
with each item under it own term window.. its obviously still there... but
that is not the way I remember using it 8^)
Again the only errors I receive is when I attempt
to login via the kde2 kdm gui login, in /var/log/secure
Dec 24 09:55:09 linuxbox PAM-warn[3804]: service:
kde [on terminal: :0] Dec 24 09:55:09 linuxbox PAM-warn[3804]: user: (uid=0)

BTW, the login only fails for GUI, all other
services, i.e. mail, smb, ftp etc work just fine.. Im almost sure it has to do
with as lonnie suggested, kde2's kdm not having correct pam support.. yet no
clue as to what direction im heading... 8^)

Just a thought... Have you tried making /opt/kde a symlink
to /opt/kde2? Could be a hard-coded script somewhere mucking things
up. HTH, Tim
