check the sticky bit on /tmp. sometimed it loses the sticky bit during
installs (IIRC) and then you can't log in.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/$ ls -l | grep tmp
drwxrwxrwt 13 root root 2048 Sep 3 15:01 tmp
^--- you should have a t here.
chmod 1777 /tmp should do it.
NOTE: I have no idea what the rest of the permissions are supposed to be
for /tmp, but this works for me.

I moved ~.Xauthority out of the way and let it be recreated. Works for
me now.
Removed ~.Xauthority and tried to login via KDM. The ~.Xauthority file was
recreated but it had the size of 0 bytes. Not sure why.
When I login via regular console first and then start KDE with "startx", the
~.Xauthority appears to have some valid info and everything works fine.
Thanks
