Locked Out of KDE (OpenSuse 11.1)



Hi

KDM is not allowing me to log in to my desktop. I can log in as root
to both KDE and the console and I can login as myself at the console,
but not through KDM. KDM just goes away for a think and then returns
me to the login display.

The only thing "unusual" that's happened lately is that I ran out of
disk space earlier in the week, but that has now been resolved. Any
suggestions as to what might be going on and where I should start
looking?

Regards
.
