Hi Ezra,

The problem actually is, when I type in the username and password, it
displays an error message saying "Could not start kdeinit. Check your
Installation" until I click on OK can't proceed. when I click on ok, it
proceed to KDE with applications running but can't go to YAST, Konsole,
Kate etc but can use office, browse the net.
