I'm using KDE 4.3 beta and after my last openSUSE package update I can't login in not root acounts. The login process begins but process aborts and system returns to KDM.

I found a workaround doing a root login and starting a new session with a normal user. Any ideas?

Update: without root acount running I can't do a KDE 4 login, KDE 3 works fine.

Can you see any messages in ~/.xsession-errors for the affected users?
Is a new user also affected?

New users is also affected .

The last lines of a fresh .xsession-errors when I can't login are:

I try upgrade buts seems like openSUSE KDE 4 beta repositiories are totally broken.

Code: Select all

plasma-desktop: cannot connect to X server :0

Looks like X is screwed in some form. Did you upgrade anything X related at the same time?

Thanks bcooksley but I upgrade KDM package and problem seems to be solved.
