Unhappy SuSE 7.3: All KDM choices lead to failsafe


Err...hi there ^_^
I've been using SuSE 7.3 happily for a year plus now, but other day was in YaST and was looking through the rc_editor thingy. I decided I wanted xfs to start so set the option, and let SuSEConfig do it's thing.
Problem now is, I get to KDM fine, but no matter what session type I select I always end up at the failsafe!
I've looked through these forums and tried a few things mentioned in similar threads, but none seemed to work, or I couldn't understand the answers
I've had a flick through my xinitrc, my Xsession and my wmlist. All *seem* ok to me.
I even went as far as commenting out all (or nearly) references I saw to an xterm in the above files. At least if that broke it I could backtrack to see what file was controlling it!
Still, that got me nowhere.
I'd really appreciate any help, as i'd like KDM back, it's just so nice
