I don't use kdm, so I didn't notice this myself, but I can reproduce
the problem on my machine.
How to fix kdm I don't know. But to get the system running you could
boot into run level 3 instead of 5, and then start X and KDE manually.
If you use GRUB, you can 'e'dit your boot command at the initial boot
screen. Just add a '3' to the line, and boot it. This should get you
into run level 3 (no X). Alternatively, you can type 'init 3' in a
terminal window when you have the system up.
Then put the line 'startkde' in your $HOME/.xinitrc file (comment out
whatever is there before about other window managers).
Then type 'startx' at the prompt, and you should be fine.

Sorry to keep you waiting, but I've been sleeping ;-).
