Hi,
regarding startkde:
dpkg -S startkde
kdebase-workspace-bin: /usr/share/man/man1/startkde.1.gz
kdebase-workspace-bin: /usr/bin/safestartkde
kdebase-workspace-bin: /usr/bin/startkde
apt-file search startkde
kdebase-workspace-bin: /usr/bin/safestartkde
kdebase-workspace-bin: /usr/bin/startkde
kdebase-workspace-bin: /usr/share/man/man1/startkde.1.gz
it's in "kdebase-workspace-bin", available in Squeeze.
Due to problems with kdm when I migrated from kde 3.5 I used gdm and
lxsession to start kdm sessions for a while (but kdm was installed), I
needed not do anything special outside of reconfiguring the good login
manager as the default:
dpkg-reconfigure <session-manager name>
