I recently started to experience this problem on my Dell laptop running
debian woody, with kde 2.2.2. I login via the console and startup X via
startx. It gets to the splash screen, and gets to the 2nd step,
"registering system services" and just stops. The splash screen icon
flashes like its thinking, but no hard disk activity. Top shows no
apparent mem spewage or the cpu being maxed out. But this only happens
under one situation, if I initialize a network interface before doing
startx. If I run 'dhcpcd' on any of my eth0 or eth1, or with a static
ip. If I don't setup any network interfaces and run startx right after
logging in, kde starts up fine.

XFree86.log shows nothing out of the ordinary.
Any ideas?

TIA,
Jeff
