Hi i have just installed opensuse 11.1 with kde 4. Because my pc was running very slowly i removed kde 4 and installed kde 3 using Yast interface. Yast removed kdm and i installed it back again. My problem is that kdm is not running and instead xdm is running which is ugly and awful.! I can run kdm as a standalone application but i dont know how to configure my system so kdm will be back again the default login manager.
any clue?
Set the display manager via
YaST -> System -> /etc/sysconfig/ Editor
Then select Desktop, Display Manager. Here you can select DISPLAYMANAGER preference.

Can you look at Yast → System → /etc/sysconfig Editor–> Desktop → Display
manager → Displaymanager and see what it is set to. If it is set to kdm4
change it to the kdm3 option and see if that helps.
Hope this helps.
