Re: Suggestion - replace gdm with kdm as the default

[Paolo Galtieri <pgaltieri@xxxxxxxxx>]

My suggestion was never meant as a long term solution.  It was meant as a very quick and dirty way to get kdm up and running.  I also pointed the person to /etc/X11/perfdm which is where the decision is made as to what display manager gets run.

I apologize that I didn't make that clear.

VT1 is X on F10 and newer.  So you'd want to use ctrl-alt-f2 to get a
console.

Why move system files around?  The next update will just put the file
back anyway, so that seems like a bad way to change the default.
