KDM did indeed make a change that none of us caught. I've fixed IceWM and
will start work on "Reset Desktop". The updated IceWM has already been added
to the update repository.

I don't see an option to change sessions in kcontrol. You can do it the
"manual" way by removing the sessions you don't want from /usr/share/xessions/
