Ok, thanks.

You need to check it in the environment used by the KDE session, e.g. through 
ALT-F2 or adding the output to startkde itself.

If you open a terminal window, it will get a new shell and it in turn will 
read its configuration files. This can lead to a different envirnoment since 
the shell executing startkde is usually a login shell and does not read the 
same configuration files.

Cheers,
Kevin
