I am used to the autoboot sequence where it goes directly to the GUI login screen and you just load KDE or Gnome or whatever environment you want. In this case, I am trying to load KDE and have had no success.

installing an x-display-manager should do the trick of automatically
taking you into gui mode after bootup.
OK, I tried that and it boots up saying, "Starting K Display Manager: kdm." at the end of the boot sequence. Then it goes to the login, no K display manager. I log in and then su, then
run kdm again, and it just sits. What am I missing?
