Sounds like the session might not be starting correctly. This could be
due the way you are starting X. I take it that your prefered login
manager is kdm and not gdm. Shouldn't make a difference. Try starting X
from init level 3 by running startx as opposed to using kdm and see what
happens.
What configuration settings have been made to the box ?
