Here is an even better answer than the one I sent earlier. Check
that /usr/X11R6/bin/kde2 is a symlink to /usr/bin/startkde. If you
reinstalled X, maybe a few additions are no longer in X's bin directory.
Hope that helps even more. (That and I reread your message and realized
I was answering a slightly different question.)
