What more information is needed?
The status before running drakedm:
mdkkdm was the display manager. The package kdebase-kdm was not installed.
When I ran drakedm: I selected kdm as the display manager.
After I ran drakedm: /etc/sysconfig/desktop had DISPLAYMANAGER=kdm. Even after
restarting the dm, mdkkdm was still the display manager.
The reason for this behaviour: Since kdm was not installed, the Mandrake scripts
used mdkkdm as a fall-back display manager.
What I expected: That drakedm would realize that the kdm is provided by
kdebase-kdm and that if I select kdm as the login manager, then that package
needs to be installed.

description:
I used the display manager configuration tool (drakdm?) to change from mdkkdm to
kdm. Afterwards, the change was not visible since mdkkdm stayed as the login
manager.
The reason: kdebase-kdm was not installed.
What I expected: That the configuration tool would install the rpms that were
needed in order to use the DM that I chose.
