Okay, I've installed GDM and tried starting KDE that way. It fails as well, same error message. GDM also gives me the option of viewing .xsession-errors, and when I choose that option, THAT fails as well--says it's unable to open the file (which is 644). For your viewing pleasure, I've included a copy of that file.

$ cat .xsession-errors

It would be awesome if you'd mark this bug up to critical. I can't use KDE!
