this is an X issue and not KDM. Do you have KDE set as default DM in sysconfig?
# grep kdm /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager DISPLAYMANAGER="kdm3" # rpm -qa | grep dm- | grep kd kdebase3-kdm-3.5.10.1-329.2.x86_64
Well, that's what I have too and that hasn't changed in a long time. Do you have any other desktop installed that you can check startx with? (I generally install fluxbox and i3) Like 'startfluxbox' or 'startkde' from the command line?
The problem is on this my main machine, so I'm not shutting down KDM or the session and 15 open apps to try. If I login on vtty3 and startx either KDE3 or IceWM to :1, no new dmessages or journal messages are generated. This is the dmesg tail: [783013.870346] CIFS VFS: bogus file nlink value 0 [783016.334736] CIFS VFS: bogus file nlink value 0 [783016.445703] CIFS VFS: bogus file nlink value 0 [839304.070453] fctar[14428]: segfault at 2d0 ip 00007f600916c911 sp 00007ffd8adb51d0 error 4 in libpthread-2.22.so[7f6009163000+18000] [871076.996885] CIFS VFS: bogus file nlink value 0 [871077.394883] CIFS VFS: bogus file nlink value 0 [871078.435236] CIFS VFS: bogus file nlink value 0 [871078.685051] CIFS VFS: bogus file nlink value 0 That fctar error was from trying to read a .tgz file misnamed .zip.
Also what about the systemd startup of the DM? Any changes from 42.2?

Really strange?
If there is I'm missing it: cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/display-manager.service [Unit] Description=X Display Manager Requires=var-run.mount Conflicts=getty@tty7.service plymouth-quit.service After=ypbind.service gpm.service time-sync.target winbind.service acpid.service Wants=remote-fs.target dbus.socket systemd-user-sessions.service systemd-logind.service After=remote-fs.target dbus.socket systemd-user-sessions.service systemd-logind.service getty@tty7.service plymouth-quit.service [Service] Type=forking PIDFile=/var/run/displaymanager.pid ExecStart=/usr/lib/X11/display-manager start ExecStop=/usr/lib/X11/display-manager stop ExecReload=/usr/lib/X11/display-manager reload KillMode=process [Install] WantedBy=graphical.target Alias=xdm.service -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.
