It is indeed a problem with the TCP port. The X server is started with the '-nolisten tcp' argument, which makes it not listen to port 6000.
I've tried several times to change the .kdmrc file by removing the nolisten option (as root), but whenever I reboot, this argument is put back in place.
 
How can I make the X-server to listen on port 6000??
 
Running KDE 3.5.4.
 
Thanks.
