Hi.

Sorry for the delay in answering -- i was out of town this weekend and 
with no email.

If you can email me privately the log file 
in /tmp/${USER}-startkde.out i can probably help.

As Lars suggested, please make sure you have 
installed /usr/lib/libsunmath.so.1 if it was not already present on 
your system.
