i've finally solved it. let me tell you what i did, hoping it could be helpfull to someone else: i installed debian woody. since my video card wasn't suported by xfree86 4.1 (the version that comes with the woody installation cd's), i manually installed xfree86 4.3, and even though i was able to work with the x's, kdm never worked. what i did after was to re-install xfree86 4.3 from nolden's site (deb http://devel-home.kde.org/~nolden/X11 woody main) using dselect, and after that i reinstalled k...

i'm using debina woody. i installed it on 3 computers, using the same installation cd's, and only in one of them i got this kdm problem.

hello again, i'm already using kdm, and i've also used control center-system-loging manager to indicate that i want to log in graphical mode, but it's still doing it in text mode. any idea?
