geater program crashes

[Pablo Lerner]

It didn't work. I removed all kde* files from /tmp, renamed .kde directory
from my users home directory and renamed .ICEauthority file from the same
dir.

Still when it boots I get an "No write access to .ICEauthority" message, and
kde doesn't load. I've tried to do chmod 7777 to the file but it didn't work
either: message is still there on reboot.

Does anyone have a clue ??
