I checked my system and there is no file like you mentioned at
/etc/sysconfig/display. After running yum remove gdm and allowing yum to
remove all gdm dependent packages, kdm came up as the default display
manager. If you use KDE mostly and want the shutdown, removing gdm might
be the easiest option. I like gdm better and prefer gnome over KDE.
Losing the shutdown feature when running a different
desktop/displaymanager is a bit of an inconvenience. You could make a
launcher on the desktop to run poweroff if you prefer gdm over kdm.
