One way of doing this is to remove xdm. I'm sure others will point you
to more satisfactory methods.
# apt-get --purge install kdm xdm-
Note the "-" after "xdm" - it says to remove the package even though
you've specified an "install" command. The "--purge" is just there for
tidyness - leave it out if you might reinstall xdm and want to keep its
config files around in the interim period.
Hope this helps,
