Check the [X-:*-Core] section of /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc...
I noticed the same effect myself and make sure the line now reads:
ServerArgsLocal=-nolisten tcp -dpi 100
which cleans things up nicely in my case.

OK, I will check that.  Thanks!

But, even if that fixes it, shouldn't it be considered a bug?  I don't
quite understand the "dpi" option there...  What does it refer to?
(dpi="dots per inch", right?  For what?  The fonts?  I thought that
the font size would take car of it's resolution/size...)  Why does it
change what is done without it?

Well, if it works I will be happy enough.  Just wondering.

Thanks again,

Luis
