I missed the beginning of this thread, so correcty if I am wrong: you are trying to change the "display manager to KDM instead of the default GDM or something similar.
You can actually do this throught the prefdm file in /etc/X11/ folder, or in the inittab file. The last few lines of /etc/inittab say: Edit the last few lines of the inittab file to say: # Run xdm in runlevel 5 # xdm is now a separate service x:5:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon You can change the last line to say: x:5:respawn:/usr/X11R6/bin/gdm -nodaemon or you can insert xdm in there To start a different WM manager, you can edit the .Xclient file in your profile. Also, see the /etc/X11 folder for more information. Hope this helps.
