The file used to read:
DESKTOP="GNOME"
And now it reads:
DEKTOP="KDE" DISPLAYMANAGER="KDM"
Yes, I also want my display manager to be KDM so KDE is actually happy. Unfortunately, this line seems to be getting ignored, and the display manager is still appearing as GDM.
That is because the line should be :
DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE"
Look at /etc/X11/prefdm to find out why it should be that way.
