Hi,

Here's a patch that could help part of the problem:

Since kdm >= 4:3.5.6.dfsg.2-1, override variables may be sourced from
/etc/default/kdm.d/. These variables can influence autologin and theme
settings of kdm. Create an override file for live user autologin at
/etc/default/kdm.d/live-autologin.

See /usr/share/doc/kdm/README.Debian for more information.
