Is xdm patched for using xvt, instead of xterm, in fail safe mode (using 
CRTL+F1 instead of ENTER for logging in the system ?)

I suppose that xterm has been removed from the XFree86 package and made into a 
separate package. I installed from CD1 alone. I also selected "console tools" 
during package selection. In fact, I noticed that kdebase-konsole was selected 
automatically but not xterm. While the xterm rpm is present on CD1, it was not 
selected by default so that I ended up with an installation that had 
kdebase-konsole but not xterm !!  
 
The way I see it, xterm must be selected by default by the installer, more so 
because the window manager /usr/X11R6/bin/twm is still part of XFree86. I can 
imagine what will happen if I do a minimal server (with X) install and start 
TWM only to find that there is not a single terminal program available !!
