No such file or directory. That's not part of a regular KDE installation.

Looks sensible for a startkde run from the text console.

Start X from text console with no window manager. Something like this in 
your .xinitrc and .xsession:

#! /bin/sh
exec xterm -geometry +0+0

Then in that xterm run startkde.
