Bug 288409

Version:           4.7 (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

After login screen, kde splash appears, crash, then xserver reloads itself so login screen appears.

Here is the output of .xsession-errors file:

/etc/X11/xim: Checking whether an input method should be started.
sourcing /etc/sysconfig/language to get the value of INPUT_METHOD
INPUT_METHOD is not set or empty (no user selected input method).
Trying to start a default input method for the locale en_US.UTF-8 ...
There is no default input method for the current locale.
Dummy input method "none" (do not use any fancy input method by default)

I managed to downgrade to kde shipped with OpenSUSE 11.4 but effect is the same.
Latest kde (loaded from 'unstable' repo) also reports the same issue/

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Each time I try to start kde session problem appears.

Actual Results:  
crash

Expected Results:  
normal kde session
