Re: kdm won't start kde2

[Peter Soetens (Kaltan) <peter.soetens@advalvas.be>]

Consult the kdm help page and the configcenter helppage in the 'khelpcenter' 
program.  
Especially the kdm handbook (html pages like 
/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kdm/different-window-managers-with-kdm.html ) is 
very helpful for configuring your problem.

just starting 'kcontrol'and going to the loginmanager section could also do 
the trick.
