The program that give you your windows under kde is called kwin.
Can you do ALT-F2 and run kwin from there?
Or even better do ALT-F2 and run konsole, and try to run kwin from the
konsole and see if it spits out any errors.


and if you get an error that a window manager is already running, type
instead kwin --replace.
