Of course, you can always do 'init 3' followed by an 'init 5' about a
minute later. Or, you can reboot.
I've even downloaded my working kdmrc file from work to no avail. I
don't think I tried rebooting yet. Note that the differences between my
home kdmrc and my work kdmrc seems to be minor and trivial - thinks like
users shown on the login screen and who can reboot.
The README states:
The configuration files in this directory were automatically generated.
As the used algorithms are pretty dumb, the configuration may be broken.
This configuration consists of the following files:
- /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
- /usr/share/config/kdm/Xservers
- /usr/share/config/kdm/Xaccess
- /usr/share/config/kdm/Xwilling
- /usr/share/config/kdm/Xresources
- /usr/share/config/kdm/Xsetup
- /usr/share/config/kdm/Xstartup
- /usr/share/config/kdm/Xreset
- /usr/share/config/kdm/Xsession
- /usr/share/config/kdm/backgroundrc
This configuration was derived from the following files:
- /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
- /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers
- /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess
- /etc/X11/xdm/Xresources
Have a look at the program <kdebase-sources>/kdm/kfrontend/genkdmconf
if you want to generate another configuration.
Kinda odd that /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc is generated from the same
file! Also I don't have <kdebase-sources> with which to generate another
configuration!
