Yeap, I got all the rpms and installed it although I had to force some.
Anyways, after installing all(BTW, I did them in XFce not in console mode), 
I restarted X.  Then came up the same login manager(kdm) from beta3, and 
tried to log in, but it says log in FAILED.  The same as 'root'.  So I 
switched to console mode and logged in and 'startx'ed, which was successful. 
   The installation must have screwed up something in log-in part(I don't 
even know exactly what got screwed up).  So, can anyone can help me out 
here?

Thanks
