Приветствую!

Подскажите, а как в текущем сизифе осуществляется выбор [k|g|w|x]dm 
менеджера входа?
Актуален ли еще метод создания соответствующей записи (KDE/GNOME) в 
/etc/sysconfig/desktop? Если да, то в какой момент происходит вызов 
/etc/X11/prefdm, если нет, то как же происходит выбор *dm?

я проследил выбор dm до скрипта /etc/X11/prefdm belong


я посылал письмо лично, продублирую, думаю в рассылке может быть интересно.

Does the file /etc/X11/prefdm belong to Your package ?
May i make some comments as a Linux newb ?

1) it seems to me to be a bug there.
#cat /etc/sysconfig/desktop
DESKTOP=Gnome2

This is not detected by the prefdm, so KDM is used.
The fix is to change >>if [...fgrep -qs .. "GNOME" ]<<.
fgrep is to be called case-insensitive (with options -qsi)

2) i also think that one must have a way to select his favorite DM, and
run it no matter which desktop is his favorite.
AFAIR Alt MAster 2.2 with XFree86 had it, Alt Master 2.4 Sysiphus does
not :-(

3) i think there is ti be a way, that any installed DM will advertise
himself.
Maybe there is to be some folder like /etx/X11/alternatives/DM, where
each DM, beeing installed, could put a symlink (like those in rc.d) or a
deskription file (like those /etc/sysinit/networkscripts/ifcfg-*)
FriendlyName/FileName/PackageName.

2&3 together will make possible to make user-interactive setup, like
those `make config`s, both ncurses based and X-based.
