You say it worked for you. Does that mean that you were able to get the small panel on a custom background or were you referring to the config file edit?
It does work, but you probably never restarted kdm for it to take the new settings into account. Drop to a console (Ctl-Alt-F1), login as root, issue init 3, and after it is done, init 5, which will take you into your new kdm session. Hit (Ctl-Alt-F1) again, logout, Alt-F7 to get back, and you are done.
You should be able to simply log out if all you want to do is restart X. I believe that restarts everything. The init 3, init 5 bounce is not always the best idea. It can cause some things to run with the wrong environment. I prefer init 1, password, init 5, or simply init 6, and go get coffee. Steven
