You installed XFree86, and quartz-wm therefore probably doesn't work anymore (as you're on Jaguar). Is it even present on your system still?

Try putting

export KDEWM=kwin

in your .xinitrc to clear out quartz-wm from your old session info (KDE saves what window manager you were using last)

I'm not sure why you don't get a full KDE session with metacity, though.

Alexander, Here's .xinitrc:
source /sw/bin/init.sh
. /sw/bin/init.sh
/sw/bin/startkde >/tmp/kde.log 2>&1
I've tried many versions with quartz-wm and XDarwin either crashes or if I put xterm in with the quartz-wm I get an xterm window with no menu bar. Open Office crashes XDarwin with the above .xinitrc but if I use metacity, no quartz proxy (doesn't seem to make a difference anyway) I can run OpenOffice but can't start KDE (wm conflict?) but can run KDE apps.
Thanks,
Brian

Is this normal? I installed XDarwin on my TiBook, 10.2.6. I am the root user so I don't get it. How do I change it? How do I define the Session manager variable?

What are you running in your .xintrc?
