^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Not sure where the "[-r: command not found" comes from (looking at your
examples from earlier).
"startkde: command not found" is most definitely the problem.
What xstartup file are you using when this log was generated?

Does it work by chance if you use another account instead of root?  Possibly
a PATH problem.
