Try running an strace on kwin and reporting the result.


Modified /opt/kde3/bin/startkde as below, but got no output, not even an empty file.
strace -s 256 -f kwin --lock -o /home/lancelot/KWIN.out &

Perhaps that line is never executed.

Try running kwin from your konsole after it dies, with the strace of course. Oh, and put the '-o ...' before the kwin command, not after.
