The core file goes to /root, it is Xorg.core .

I entered "exec startkde 2>&1 | tee ~/.xsession-errors" to .xinitrc and 
ran startx,  but it does not create ~/.xsession-errors.

But following errors appear on the console:
dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", 
sender=":1.4" (uid=0, pid=1123 comm="/usr/bin/X) 
interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Manager" member="FindDeviceByCapability" 
error_name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.Hal" 
(uid=0 pid=1062 comm="/usr/sbin/hald))

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11. Server aborting.

waiting for X server to begin accepting connections
giving up

xinit: Software caused connection abort (errorno 53): unable to connect 
to X server
xinit: No such process (errorno 3): Server error.

xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "tds:0" in "remove" command

The X server is xorg-server-1.5.3, Xorg version is 7.4.
