Oh, and /etc/conf.d/xdm exists: |

|

kevin@kermod ~ $ cat xdm-090708a |

# We always try and start X on a static VT. The various DMs normally default |
| 20 |
# to using VT7. If you wish to use the xdm init script, then you should ensure |
| 21 |
# that the VT checked is the same VT your DM wants to use. We do this check to |
| 22 |
# ensure that you have't accidently configured something to run on the VT |
| 23 |
# in your /etc/inittab file so that you don't get a dead keyboard. |
| 24 |
CHECKVT=7 |

# What display manager do you use ? [ xdm | gdm | kdm | kdm-3.5 | |

kdm-4.0 | gpe | entrance ] |
| 28 |
# NOTE: If this is set in /etc/rc.conf, that setting will override this one. |

DISPLAYMANAGER="xdm" |

I've tried changing the DISPLAYMANAGER to kde, and I get different |
| 35 |
symptoms. This gets complicated, so I'm just reporting here what I |
| 36 |
started with. |
