Here is some more info.

I installed fvwm, so I'm now able to login into graphical environment and launch all KDE apps.

however when trying to replace window manager, using
> kwin --replace >& /tmp/kwin.log

there is a crash and I get back to login screen.

Here is /tmp/kwin.log
could not access kephald, falling back to QDesktopWidget
adding an output 0 with geom: QRect(0,0 1440x900)
kwin: Fatal IO error: client killed

What is 'kephald' ?
Could this problem be related to xrandr?
