Dear all,
my KDE crashes after I try to install another another distro in different partition.

I tried to install Linux Oracle in /dev/sda1 while Slackware in /dev/hdb trying to perform multiboot. The installation wasn't a success for some reason. However, after the installation attempt, KDE crashes while tty2-4 works well.

I don't know what stuff that touched the KDE settings (when I tried to login, it brought me to a default settings that I didn't set) and broke some stuff there. The installation was in the different hard drive, and in the installation menu I told it that it mustn't touch /dev/hdb.

What is the first step to troubleshoot the broken KDE?

Analyse the contents of ~/.xsession-errors, and make sure your $HOME directory is set properly. Also, you may wish to clear the contents of /var/tmp/kdecache-$USER/

thanks for the reply. Apparently the problem lies in the memory....
