Greg, Yes, it sounds right. With Mandrake 9.1 and KDE (default version) where do I find the second autologin setting? The one I know about is in MCC:Boot, if I remember right.

When you use autologin, the dm is never started because autologin is handled elsewhere. You probably have autologin set in your dm too, which is why when you logout out and the dm starts, it logs you back in right away. Subsequent logouts present you with a login dialogue because the dm autologin only happens when the dm is first started.
