Added:

# include at top of /opt/trinity/share/config/kdm/Xsession

## Added Exports for kdm - see Trinity bug 421

export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS="/etc/xdg:/opt/trinity/etc/xdg"
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/share:/usr/local/share:/opt/trinity/share
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/trinity/lib"
export PATH="/opt/tinity/bin:$PATH"

  Makes no difference, kdm still drops you back to console - no .xsession-errors
no errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.  Typing 'startx' brings Trinity right up.

  The plot thickens... Something is rotten in Denmark (kdm that is :)

... but 'kdesu kate &' works great in Trinity!
