DetailsDescription:
I've just installed KDE 4.5 from testing. When do 'sudo init 5', X doesn't start, and shows me errors because of my keyboard, which are clearly NOT related to the real issue. 'startx' as well as 'xinit' and 'sudo /etc/rc.d/kdm start' don't work. Then I changed the line GreeterUID=kdm to GreeterUID= in /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc. Then 'sudo /etc/rc.d/kdm start' works again, I can see kdm and log in. But 'startx', 'xinit' and 'sudo init 5' still don't work. Is it right to have GreeterUID=kdm in the file? Isn't it a bug? The problem is: xorg won't start with KDM at boot, only CLI login is possible! Using GDM instead of KDM in /etc/inittab works fine.

Nevertheless, launching startx or xinit from CLI does not work (no X coming up), and I can't find anything useful in the logs (Xorg.0.log). I don't think a normal user shouldn't be able to execute startx.
axanon: I think KDM is run with user kdm only since 4.5, so it's not an issue if you miss this user with 4.4.4.
axanon: I've the same issue for upgrading my other PC to KDE 4.5 because of the missing libdbusmenu-qt.
libdbusmenu-qt will appear soon
