It's not about kdm, but really kde. I don't really care for such a thing for display managers because it is really unlikely that more than one installed is really needed by anyone. Personally, I prefer wdm. kdm is not installed, neither is gdm or xdm. > KDE is definitely a session manager rather than a window manager ... if > something's going to register as a window manager, it'd have to be kwin, > the component of KDE that actually *is* a window manager.

I'm somewhat afraid to install gnome because it is really hard to wipe from disk again ;-) The thing is: kde2 is default x-session-manager, xfce is default x-window-manager. This might make sense in gnome (it could actually start as default x-session-manager and use the default x-window-manager) but KDE2 does not have this capability, so registering as x-s-m does not really make sense to me.
