"xsm" stands for "X Session Manager". "xvt" is a minimal
terminal application,
and "xclock" is a clock. My distro keeps them on-hand for testing and use with
systems that have an X server and a bare WM, rather than a full desktop
environment. You shouldn't need to have them installed to run TDE, so these
warnings are a red herring.
Do you have anything in .xinitrc?

I am not familiar with mageia, but this

such file or directory
clearly indicates you are missing significant
part of Xorg.
Clearly files are missing. Significant I'm not sure about, since TDE works
just fine loaded via TDM. MCC, rpm and urpmq seem unable to find me a package
that provides that file, or xclock or xvt or xsm.
