I think there are some permission issues here.
But first of all, you must be sure that you PATH reaches deep into the KDE habitat
PATH=/opt/sfw/kde/bin:$PATH
+all the ../bin's you find.

also, you must set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to

/opt/sfw/lib:/usr/lib: .... all the 'lib's you find.

I hate KDE, so I never run it. But, it needs to run a sort of KDE daemon called DCOPSERVER or similar - KDE doesn't run without it.


OK, so I just got it going.
Log in as root command line login.
Be sure to set PATH and stuff as above.

Start kdm.

Now, log in as you - if you get twm or some stuff like that, do a ps -a to find its pid, kill it and start kde.

And remember:
This is NOT the way to do it!

there probably is some install scrip somewhere that does it all autokludgily.

PS: I don't hate it that much, but what do you want that stuff for when there is Motif?

kded4

KDED4(8)							 KDE User's Manual							  KDED4(8)

NAME

       kded4 - KDE daemon - triggers Sycoca database updates when needed.

SYNOPSIS

       kded4 [--help] [Generic options] [Qt-options] [KDE-options] [--check]

DESCRIPTION

	kded4 is responsible for creating the sycoca file, i.e. the binary cache of servicetypes, mimetypes, and services for a particular user.

       It monitors the directories containing .desktop files. When a file is added/removed, it waits 5 seconds (in case of series of updates), and
       then launches kbuildsycoca.

GENERIC OPTIONS

       --author
	      Show author information.

       --help Show help about options.

       --help-all
	      Show all options.

       --help-kde
	      Show KDE specific options.

       --help-qt
	      Show Qt specific options.

       --license
	      Show license information.

       -v --version
	      Show version information

APPLICATION OPTIONS

       --check
	      Check Sycoca database only once.

USAGE

       If kded4 is called without parameters and is already running, it shows the message:

	      KDE Daemon (kded) already running.

       If kded4 is called with kded4 --check, then it updates the KDE sycoca using kbuildsycoca.

SEE ALSO

       kdeoptions(7), qtoptions(7), kbuildsycoca(8)

BUGS

       There are probably tons of bugs. Use bugs.kde.org: http://bugs.kde.org to report them.
