xorg 7 and KDE

I followed this topic suggestions but I've got a problem running KDE.

I configured KDM to autostart in init 5 mode and when I log into the system through it Arch doesn't login and takes me to KDM login again.

If I log via console mode and I start xorg via "startx" I've got a "blank" running system after the "Arch KDE" run screen.

What's the problem?

Simple answer I know, but have you tried startkde from the console?

"startx" runs "exec startkde" and I got a blank screen after KDE runs everything It needs.

You looked to see if there's any error messages in the xorg log?

It's not an error because xorg is running.

That's irrelevant, there may still be a problem that's visible from the console.

Also, check your ~/.xsession-errors file also. That might have some relevent error messages in there.
