AFAIK this was also the case for KDE only few weeks ago. It turned out to be a
bug in KDE, so probably gnome has the same issue. AFAIK Dirk Mueller knows more
about that.

It's no longer necessary to use KDM. GDM works quite as well.

This *might* be a side effect. To be sure, check the output of
xdpyinfo | grep resolution
The useful range is 75-130. If it is outside that range (typical monitors have
approx. 100, laptops typically a bit higher, we have to check whether they are
correct.
