there's a file in /etc/sysconfig/ called desktop.
(you gotta be root to do this) edit that and add a line that says DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE" then save it and reboot. it should come up with KDM instead of GDM. |

/sbin/init 3 When you are returned to the console, login as root if necessary and type: /sbin/init 5 No rebooting required :) |
