James, The kdm hang is due (as earlier posts indicated) to an incompatibly with newer versions of QT in Sid and possibly GCC 32 libs and has been around for about a week. On my system SID KDM startup is 35 seconds. (KDM startup on my woody system is 9 seconds). Be patient! I did see that kdm_greet and krootimage were the KDM processes that were stalling. However I don't see a memory leak or size excess of the KDM process after KDE starts.
