Recently someone on the list pointed out that in unstable th agent did
not start if you logged in via KDM, because the Xsession script of KDM
was broken and no longer included the Xsession scripts from /etc/X11.
It should look like this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /etc/kde3/kdm/Xsession
#! /bin/sh
# Xsession - run as user
# invoke global X session script
. /etc/X11/Xsession
