Re: GDM, XDM & KDM

	I recently loaded Debian on my laptop via the netinst.iso CD.  GDM and XDM work like champs.  I did a apt-get install kdm.  Install went fine.  The file /etc/X11/default-display-manager gets updated.
	When I attempt to login via KDM, it looks like it's going to start KDe but just recycles and goes back to the KDM login screen (in a wicked loop).  I can start KDE via startx.  I can customize the look of KDM, but cannot login what so ever via KDM (except via the cosole login menu item).
Does this mean you also can't login and start a different window manager, such as icewm or wmaker? (It's a little unclear whether you mean that you can't login "what so ever" to KDE, or "what so ever" to any wm.)
