No ideas, but the same symptoms here. I've been using startx from a character mode shell and that works fine, and since I'm going to upgrade to SuSE 8.0 as soon as it arrives I figured I could live with it until then.
But I've been all over my system looking for kdmrc files and none of the ones found explain the behavior of the kde3 kdm I see... same as you, everything is set to defaults, you try to change it with kcontrol and it appears to have no effect at all.

I have posted the solution to this before ( SuSE 7.3 ) mkdir /opt/kde3/share/config/kdm ln -s /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc /opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc ln -s /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess /opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/Xaccess edit the files in /etc/SuSEconfig and change: qt2 -> qt3 kde2 -> kde3 edit /etc/init.d/xdm, change: kde2 -> kde3 Add kde3 to /usr/X11R6/bin/wmlist Add kde3 to the sessionlist in /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc Add kde3 to /etc/ld.so.conf run ldconfig run rcxdm start - -- This mail is sent using KMail and Linux.
