KDE doesn´t start

[Ewald Stamp]

Hi,

KDE stops after showing the splash screen. "Initializing system
services" ist shown in the splash screen. Then it disappears and nothing
happens.

A windowmanager is not loaded (xterm has no window decoration). I can
even start another wm, i.e. wmaker, at this point.

That´s the output I get:
$ /opt/kde2/bin/startkde
[: ==: unknown operand
kdeinit: launch -> dcopserver --nosid
kdeinit: Launched DCOPServer, pid = 3160 result = 0

DCOP: register 'anonymous-3332' -> number of clients is now 2
DCOP: unregister 'anonymous-3332'

DCOP: unregister 'ksplash'

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
