KDE 3 does not start

[Kalle Tuulos]

Hello,

I installed Cygwin, Xfree and KDE3 (using the 40M installation utility)
to Win2k computer. The KDE3 worked quite well (the start-up still took a
minute or two, but anyway) after the installation, even remote X
connections worked fine. But now, for some reason, the KDE does not
start any more: the start-up splash disappears after "Initializing
system services" and result is just a blue screen. The "plain" XFree
with twm works still well.

In the bottom of this e-mail is the log from startkde.bat. The result is
same, if I choose the startkde_small.bat. If someone has any ideas, I
would be very thankful!

BR,

  Kalle Tuulos
