After you add it in the KDM login setup widget, you need to also add it
to the case structure at the end of your: "Xsession" file.

The stock setup is that there is an: "Xsession" file in:
"$KDEDIR/share/config/kdm/" that sources the: "Xsession" in:
"/etc/X11/".  It is the second one you need to edit.  Debian might have
changed this/or be slightly different.

What ever string you add to the KDM login widget (if selected) will be
passed to: "Xsession" as the first parameter: $1, just as if you
executed it from the command line as:

	Xsession KDE_CVS

Except, I think you might have problems with a string with a space in
it.  Better use the underline like the example.

It is totally up to the: "Xsession" script to do something with this. 
If you just add an additional case to the case structure, then it should
work.
