 KDE will abort when the home-directory is not writable. Since KDE 3.1.4 this can be prevented 
 by setting the environment variable $KDE_HOME_READONLY to a non-empty value.
+<p>

+It has been reported that home directories mounted on some versions of Netware file systems do 
+not support hardlinks. This causes problems with the generation of <b>$HOME/.ICEauthority</b>
+and results in KDE being unable to login. This situation can be remedied by setting the 
+$ICEAUTHORITY variable to point to a file outside the home directory, for example somewhere under
+/tmp. Note that each user must have its own unqiue file.
