Where is my old KDM login screen?



Hello,
everything worked fine until a moth ago or so. After next logon (after 
dist-upgrade) I noticed that my KDM screen disappeared and was replaced with 
blue one.
I was confused, but left the topic, because I didn't need anything special. 
But last time I have decided I miss some functionality. In fact, I wanted to 
have possibility to select users from a list, with predefined user and 
autocompletion.
However it is no longer available. I have searched google, this list and bugs 
list for KDM. In several places I could find information that it has 
something to do with desktop-base package. I have 
edited /etc/defaults/kdm.d/10_desktop_base:
USETHEME="true"
THEME="/usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/circles"
#old theme /usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/debian-moreblue"
Nothing changed. I have installed kdm theme packages:
ii  kde-kdm-themes            2007.01-1                 Themes for the K 
Display Manager
ii  kdm                       3.5.5a.dfsg.1-5           X display manager for 
KDE
ii  kdmtheme                  1.1.2-1                   theme manager for KDM
Nothing changed. I have tried to select other theme in KDE Configuration 
Center, but none offered requested functionality.

Now, the login process looks quite weird. First KDE welcome (splash) screen is 
displayed (that's fine). Then it is changed to KDM splash screen selected 
with Configuration Center (still fine). Afterwards the brand new background 
and login screen jump in (switching background is just ugly IMHO). After 
successful logon the brand new background disappears and previous one is 
displayed (another background switch :| ).

Would you be so kind and suggest any solution to that?

Best regards,
Robert
