I hve followed all the instuctions, but KDE does not start.

No matter if I use the "simple" or the "full desktop" startup, I basically
see nothing. Except kdeinit is using ~50% of processor all the time. I can
start xload fine, but not kate or konsole.


These are the files I installed:

qt-x11-free-3.3.4-1.tar.bz2
kdelibs-3.4.1-0.tar.bz2
kdebase-3.4.1-0.tar.bz2
kdepim-3.4.1-0.tar.bz2
kdesdk-3.4.1-0.tar.bz2

I get the following output:

$ ~/startkde
