After restarting the display manager (or rebooting), an error message stating that the session directory is missing or empty is displayed and you can only go into failsafe mode at that time. I was able to return to KDM by changing the run level in the terminal window to not go to graphical login, rebooting, starting KDE and then running MCC to change the display manager back (although in hind sight, I might have been able to just run MCC in the failsafe terminal window, but I didn't try that). Anyway, anyone who tries to use GDM is not going to be happy that it breaks the login process and then they have to jump through hoops to fix it. BTW, this was on a clean install of 9.2 Beta 2.
