Cannot start KDE - stuck at tty

$

Hello community,

I had some problems with the default ATI fglrx driver, so I removed it and installed the free radeon driver following this page: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Radeon#In..._radeon_driver

After executing the modprobe radeon and reboot commands, my KDE fails to load. No login screen is displayed, so I had to use the tty login.
Entering startx at tty:
Shows the default 13.1 login screen and then snaps back to tty with the following message:
Code:

xinit:connection to X server lost
It also shows some library ksmserver could not be loaded (usr/lib64/kdeinit4_ksmserver.so) & the libatiuki.so

Entering startkde shows:
Code:

$DISPLAY is not set or cannot connect to the X server
Entering init 5 freezes the screen on the default login background.
Executing export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 did nothing.

I also added the exec startkde ​line to the /etx/X11/xorg.conf file.
I'm using an ATI 5470 mobility radeon and opensuse 13.1 64bit KDE.
Please help me out guys.
