Problem during startx


Hello to everybody! I've a problem with startx! When I try to start X by startx, X server crashes and display follow message. If I run X by X :0, XServer works and I can launch kde from a xterm window by startkde. Any ideas?

xvt: unknown option "-n"

I've found that the problem comes from a bug. xvt is a symlink to konsole. I've trid to sym-link xvt to xterm and xinit now works! ( xinit -c fluxbox ) , but startx doesn't work... how can I do? ( It seems to a Mdk 10 bug )
