I could not get any info on KDM, so I used GDM and posted details, a few days
back, of my successes. One of my hastles with KDM was it not re-logging in.
(a feature, they seem to claim)

I set the auto-login time for GDM to 10 secs, either make that time shorter
or disable the login display until re-login, by hacking the source
(remote X-terms only TimedLogin, don't AutoLogin)

I'm interested in anybody else's solutions

PAM magic is probably the correct solution.
