Hello,
On our CentOS 6.3 PC we have:
DESKTOP="KDE"
DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE"
in the '/etc/sysconfig/desktop' file.
So, I am executing:
ps aux | egrep "kdm|gdm"
Here is what I see:
root 545 0.0 0.0 0 0 ?S08:15 0:00
[kdmflush]
root 581 0.0 0.0 0 0 ?S08:15 0:00
[kdmflush]
root 582 0.0 0.0 0 0 ?S08:15 0:00
[kdmflush]
I'm at a loss tbh... That's definitely what I do for sure...
Curious - did you reboot?

It take it back. It worked once. It's now reverted to GDM although
/etc/sysconfig/desktop still reads DISPLAYMANAGER=KDM. However, "ps aux
| egrep 'kdm|gdm'" shows:
bash-4.1$ ps aux | egrep 'kdm|gdm'
root 3408 0.0 0.0 121484 2192 ?Ss 14:19 0:00
/usr/sbi/gdm-binary -nodaemon

Great! Yeah, tbh - I had that issue some time ago as well ;) Took me a
little time to figure it out :)

You want this in /etc/sysconfig/desktop
DISPLAYMANAGER=KDM
Note no preceeding dollar sign :)
To better understand, take a peak at /etc/X11/prefdm
In it, its doing this:
. /etc/sysconfig/desktop
You'll see it doing some checks like:
elif [ "$DISPLAY
Sorry to be so slow in responding. I've done what you suggested. I created
/etc/sysconfig/desktop
and entered "$DISPLAYMANAGER=KDM". I rebooted but there was no change. GDM is
still being used.
Any other suggestions?

Just create the file /etc/sysconfig/desktop and
