I have installed debian testing/unstable using the netinst cd image to
boot into a minimal debian system and then have downloaded and installed X
and KDE.

The problem is that I am unable to get a graphical login screen. The
bootup messages say that kdm has been started but but I still get the text
login prompt. On shutdown kdm is shown as not being shut down as it is not
running.

I can manually run kdm by /etc/init.d/kdm start.

I have removed  xdm and installed kdm. I did a dpkg-reconfigure kdm. To no
avail.

Kdm is set as default display manager in /etc/X11/deault-display-manager.

I have the initdefault set to 2 in /etc/inittab. Changing this to 3 or 5
does not help.

I have looked at the logs in /var/log/Xfree86.0.log but couldn't find
anything.

What am I missing ?

regards,

Sharukh
