Apple X11 and Sourceforge KDE

I believe I asked this question about 9 months ago. Since there has been no reply, I'll try re-wording the question in case the orginal was not clear.

KDE is set to launch when I open X11. However, once KDE has loaded, NONE of the windows are responsive (To ANYthing). I can move folders and files around the desktop, but once a window has been opened, ir will Not close and nothing within can be activated. No response from dock or menus once a window has been opened. The desktop becomes useless.

I have the latest version of X11, Fink and the Sourceforge KDE. I had even tried removing and re-installing the KDE packages from scratch. No go. No other window servers are present.

Somebody, please, throw me a bone.
 
Im having the same issue, but haven't had time to troubleshoot it or look for solutions.
 
Good to know I'm not alone, at least. If you ever have time to delve into the mystery, I'd appreciate it if you'd share the results here.

Still, there have to be others.
 
Someone from the Apple board recommended the following. It required bash.

PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin
export PATH
export KDEWM=kwin
startkde >/tmp/kde-$USER.log 2>&1
