hmm What specifically do you dislike about XDM?
While I don't use XDM (except when I am playing with making Network Booting
X Terminals out of PCs), I kind of like it...it works..
Though...I would like to "Beautify it"

I dunno about KDM...
I have never used any kde stuff at all. I have only seen Screenshots of it.
I do kind of like the idea of kde (I really like CDE afterall)...if it
only LOOKED more like CDE (not a fan of its flashier graphics)
of course...this doesn't go into the licence issues...
at a minimum you will probbaly need qt to use kdm.
Personally I would just configure and beautify XDM rather then switch...
I think it looks fine.
