That's fixed now and I have yet another new style of login. I presume this is Fedora's themed KDE login. It certainly has all the components I expect to see in a KDE login. Alain - create the file as described above, then reboot. I don't think it's possible to make this file be read without rebooting. If I'm wrong, someone will tell us. When you get the new-style menu up you'll see at the bottom left Session Type. That's where you'll switch to KDE. Anne
