I use kdm, on RH7.1 based machine. I have added equinox, and a couple of others at some time or another.
First you must add an entry in the /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession file <CLIP FROM Xsession> # now, we see if xdm/gdm/kdm has asked for a specific environment case $# in 1) case $1 in failsafe) exec xterm -geometry 80x24-0-0 ;; gnome) exec gnome-session ;; kde|kde1|kde2) exec /usr/share/apps/switchdesk/Xclients.kde ;; windows) exec /bin/win -g 1280x1024 ;; twm) # fall back to twm exec /usr/share/apps/switchdesk/Xclients.twm ;; equinox) # Use equinox desktop exec /usr/bin/startede ;; esac esac </CLIP> Look for above section and then add a case statement like I have for equinox. Then, if using kdm, log in as root, run the kde control center, select System->Login Manager select Sessions Under Session types, add a new type name that matches the name you used in the case statement... e.g. equinox Then save it all, exit, restart X and hopefully you will be able to select it from the list. There is probably other ways to do it, but this is what worked for me. Mike.
