kde 3.3 (kdm) issues

[Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton]

i've encountered a problem with kde 3.3 it's related to kdm starting
up on the wrong console window:

> - kdm starts on the second console instead of the 7th like before the
>   upgrade
  
    that's because kdm uses the first available console unless told not
	to do so. the kdmrc shipped by Debian points kdm to use console #7,
    but your kdmrc probably doesnt. add this line to /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc:

		      ServerVTs=-7


now, bizarrely, kdm somehow starts up at the WRONG time, or there's
a missing option (see above).

if anyone else upgrades to kde 3.3 and subsequently finds odd things going
on with console logins, this is why.

Truth, honesty and respect are rare commodities that all spring from
the same well: Love.  If you love yourself and everyone and everything
around you, funnily and coincidentally enough, life gets a lot better.
