My impression is that both startkde and gnome-session neglect to
actually start some of the bits they need. Everyone for sure
needs a dbus session running, so one of the things that
seems to make vnc startup work better is this fragment:

if [ -z "$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" ]
then
   echo .xsession starting dbus
   eval `dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session`
else
   echo dbus already started
fi

I don't know if that is enough to get kde going as well.

Apparently things like this are started by gdm or kdm rather
than gnome-session or startkde.
