to reconfigure them the most likely command I can think of
is:
dpkg-reconfigure gdm
(or kdm or xdm)
to start them manually:
/etc/init.d/gdm start
(or kdm or xdm)
to restore them:
update-rc.d gdm defaults
(or kdm or xdm)
you really only need 1 display manager, I would reccomend removing
the 2 you don't plan on using(I personally use kdm, even though
I don't use kde)
