I did this (I didn't know that there _were_ SysV items for the kernel. :-)
It rebooted correctly and everything seems to work - except for KDE! When
I run startx with any other window manager in my .xinitrc, it works fine.
When I have the shell script, startkde, that calls kde in there, it locks
up the machine. A ctrl-alt-backspace won't even kill the x-server.

Sigh.

I'm trying to remove all the kde pieces and recompile and install, but
that isn't going well either. I grabbed the pkgs and will try that next.
