I didn't find Debian or kde2 in /etc/gdm/Sessions, I found
something-I-now-forget, and KDE there. So I didn't know how to apply the
suggestion from Mircea.

I now have kde working, and while it looks terrific, my mouse is twitchy.
It was unuseable when I first started working until I caused the
Gandalf-suggests thingy to not start automatically; now the mouse is
just a bit overly sensitive. I also now have a different look that
I'm not fond of. It had sort of looked like my Sun workstation at work
but now it's different. How to I change the look and feel now?
