Can you start anything that isn't KDE-related? |
| 24 |
Like xclock, xterm,...? |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
That way we can check if the problem is SSH/X related or KDE-related. |

|
| 28 |
You could also try starting a VNC-session to see if that would allow you to |
| 29 |
start programs. |

|
| 31 |
Is "dbus" actually running? And is it included in the USE-flags? |
| 32 |
Also, later KDE versions require policykit/consolekit, |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Consolekit has a service as well that needs to be running. |
