Unable to start KDE4 on freebsd 7.4-RELEASE

> I created a new user with an empty $HOME,  added the startkde line to .xinitrc and had the same problem. I did notice that drkonqi is crashing and writing out a .core file, so I'll see if gdb can tell me anything.

Read about something called kchildlock :

kchildlock

on an archlinux page:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=940823

one solution is to remove kchildlock.  problem now becomes how does one do this?
