Both files are scripts that sets up the "environment" and start other
applications.

As far as I can see, no. Don't know if debian may have another version of th
e
script whit debugging information, I suggest you look at the script yourself
,
if there would be you would see quite many similar if-statements in the scri
pts.

The logo can be turned off/on in the xorg.conf, I used to have that on in th
e
old days when the nVidia driver was unstable.
You could switch over to the VESA driver and see if KDE starts up better, if
yes, then there is some misconfiguration in your xorg.conf, if it too stops
then it's kde or something it depends on.
