Several possible reasons:
 
I have experienced that myself every time on SBs and Solaris10, after a fresh install.

- /export/home is not mounted at boot time.
- kde_dtlogin is not installed
- there's an old .profile or .bashrc or .kderc in your home dir
- /opt/csw/bin is not in $PATH
- /opt is not mounted at boot time
