really--no documentation exist for kdm? then why does a find on kdm turn up 
the following:

/usr/share/man/man1/kdm.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man5/kdm.options.5.gz

and a find on undocumented* turns up nothing at all?

okay, i take that back. i did an ls -al /usr/share/man/man7* and got this:

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1314 May 16  2001 pam-undocumented.7.gz

man pam-undocumented verifies what michel says, but also says:

  This program, utility or function does not have  a  useful
  manpage.   There is however documentation available for it
  in the libpam-doc package, which  contains  The  Linux-PAM
  System  Administrator's  Guide,  The Linux-Pam Application
  Developer's  Guide,  and  The  Linux-Pam  Module  Writer's
  Guide.  

who knew?

perhaps this should be an addendum to the bug report.
