Suggestion - replace gdm with kdm as the default

[Paolo Galtieri]

My suggestion was never meant as a long term solution.  It was meant as a
very quick and dirty way to get kdm up and running.  I also pointed the
person to /etc/X11/perfdm which is where the decision is made as to what
display manager gets run.

I apologize that I didn't make that clear.
