==================================================
I can remove/rename the entries in /tmp and /var/tmp but to no avail.

Error setting up interprocess communications for KDE
Could not read network connection list
/home/fredw/.DCOPserver_linux__0
Please check that the "dcopserver" program is running

Using Knoppix, I get permission failures when I attempt "ls -a" or "ls -l" 
in my home directory.
I will try to get a copy of the "startx" startup log entries as they seem 
to have more detailed information about the failure.
