Hello!
I just compiled KDE 3.2 with Konstruct on a Redhat 8 machine.
I installed it in ~/kde3.2 and set all variables as suggested...
When I startx, I see the "first-time-wizard" and then the splash screen on white background.
However, the second icon (System Services) flashes forever :cry:
I just found out, that it does not hang forever, just for about 15 mins. :?
Then KDE is up and running except for kicker, which does not respond...
Here is what I logged from startx to the point where it starts its 15 min pause:

reporting problems. (See http://www.XFree86.Org/)
