Re: cannot choose kwin when using kdm - Solved
Don't you love it when you post a question to a mailing list, and then
figure out the solution less than 120 seconds later?
It turns out I just did not have ksmserver package installed, which is
apparently contains a key component (/usr/bin/startkde). After
installing that and restarting kdm, it works fine now.
Thanks for listening.
