Check the startup procedure for startx. Look for a $HOME/.xsession file in
the home directory, that gets run if it's there. You mention that it's root,
does that mean that it's not other users having the problem? I suspect
.xsession then.
I'm having the same problem. Can't login as root ('login failed') but I can
login as user
but root does not have an .xsession file. Can get in to KDE2 via a console.
