You have to run it from .xinitrc or use a login manager.

That's no help:
- kdm *is* a login manager.
- startkde is what you use from .xinitrc.
- kdm can be run from command line without problems, or you can add it
  to /etc/ttys, but you need a working X config first or you'll create a nice
  loop.

As for the problem, the X server doesn't start up correctly, 
view /var/log/Xorg.0.log for information.
