Thank you. Editing /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf as you suggested was the step I didn't have.

For "basic" XDM Sessions remove the comment on the following line within /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config: DisplayManager.requestPort: 0 You may also want to make adjustments to /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers, /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess & /etc/X11/xdm/resources as needed. For GDM Session change the line within the "[xdmcp]" of /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf to: Enable=1 Some customization possible within the file /usr/share/config/kdmrc.
