I'm not sure what you mean by "it is running but all I get....is twm"?
Are you getting a kdm graphical login or not?
Look in /etc/alternatives/ for the x-* links. If you do not have an
x-session-manager link to kde2 you should 'man update-alternatives' to
see what you can do. For example, on my system:
shyamal@rattler:~$ cd /etc/alternatives/
shyamal@rattler:/etc/alternatives$ ls -l x-session-manager
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Apr 22 2002 x-session-manager ->
/usr/bin/kde2
shyamal@rattler:/etc/alternatives$ /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --display
x-session-manager
x-session-manager - status is auto.
link currently points to /usr/bin/kde2
/usr/bin/gnome-session - priority 20
slave x-session-manager.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/gnome-session.1.gz
/usr/bin/kde2 - priority 40
Current `best' version is /usr/bin/kde2.
Don't trust me on all this, I don't use kde, I have an ~/.xsession
file that starts xfce via a gdm screen.
Cheers!
Shyamal
