I am unsure how to troubleshoot the issue of kdenlive not starting.
I have done cygcheck and appearently all the dll's are installed.
I am also unable to get a kde desktop to start up even though I have
installed every kde package and dependency.
The kde desktop starts to initialize but hangs right after the icon for the
harddrive flashes a few times and this is the the output I get from the
terminal:

$ startx /bin/startkde
xauth:  file /home/Administrator/.serverauth.1716 does not exist
xauth:  file /home/Administrator/.Xauthority does not exist
xauth:  file /home/Administrator/.Xauthority does not exist

xinit: XFree86_VT property unexpectedly has 0 items instead of 1
startkde: Starting up...
.

I don't know if the two issues between the kde desktop and kdenlive are
related.
I did install amarok as a test application and it does load and run
occcasionaly, but I am having trouble reproducing the proper procedure I
used to get it running ( it fails to run consitently and hangs on a
"kbuildsyscoca4 running..." message. I press ctrl-c to terminate then I get
the amarok splash screen then it dies, this procedure was from xterm within
the X server)

anyways one of the first messages amarok displays is:

"amarok(2636)/kdeui (KIconLoader)
KSharedDataCache::Private::mapSharedMemory:
Failed to establish shared memory mapping, will fallback to private
memory -- memory usage will increase"


this is all very odd to me.
so basically the kde desktop is broken, kdenlive is broken, and amarok is 
broken for me.
any help appreciated.
