Not sure off hand what the util you did use was, but if need be you can
always give it "a slap in the face" and manualy edit your
(~/.xinitrc || ~/.Xclients) startup files.

This could be the source of the problem, is this a link, a script, or a
binary? KDE usualy starts with a script file "startkde" which starts all
the seperate pieces. this script will be located in either
a) /opt/kde/startkde
b) /usr/bin/startkde
depending on your Mandrake version.
if /usr/X11R6/bin/kde is a link, is should most likely point to the
startkde script
if /usr/X11R6/bin/kde is a script, make sure it's calling startkde from
the correct location
if it's a binary exec rpm -qf /usr/X11R6/bin/kde and let me know what it
says
