You can run KDE from GDM. Just in case you're not aware of it.
Have you edited your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 ? Where did you remove the
others?
If you have dpkg-reconfigure installed you can run dpkg-reconfigure
"whatever xserver you have installed"
If not... do an ls across /usr/X11R6/bin for *86* or *setup*. I have
XF86config installed with testing. There may be some new-fangled
graphical way to do it as well. I've not run Debian in a while...
Can you just post your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 ?
