Subject: [gentoo-amd64] KDE 4.0.4 upgrade, sort of.

1 Well, I decided to take the plunge and install KDE4 based on the
2 directions at http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/kde/kde4.xml.

4 The installation went well (with a re-install of qt4 due to a missing
5 use flag) and it was on to restarting the system so I could start
6 mucking with the new interface. And that's where I hit a snag.
7
8 In the URL above, the directions say to change /etc/conf.d/xdm, the
9 DISPLAYMANAGER variable to kdm-4.0. Every time I tried that, I got just
10 xdm instead as a login screen and then, after log in, got my same KDE3.5
11 desktop. There are no other directions on this page, so now I don't
12 know where to go from here.
13
14 What now?
