The reminders are performed by the KOrganizer Reminder Daemon (korgac) 
which should be started when you start KOrganizer and, unless you 
disabled the reminder daemon, also when you start KDE. The daemon is 
accessible via an icon in the system tray.

If you do not get any reminders then the reminder daemon is probably not 
running. Try to start it manually from Konsole by entering 'korgac'.
