wdm? That makes 4. Installed now wdm and during install wdm asked
me if wdm should manage local display. One point for wdm. Xdm, gdm, kdm
all try to manage vt7 :0 without asking.
But wdm allows all host to get a login prompt in Xaccess without asking.
Minus point. Same for xdm. But one point for kdm: no XDMCP access by
default. Does gdm handle XDMCP at all?
Nevertheless all /etc/init.d/?dm script start the daemon without checks
for another dm.
Just more reasons to coordinate the different dm?
