- From ca. 3.2.0, the config file used to configure this feature was moved 
from /etc/X11somthing to 

/usr/kde/3.2/share/config/kdm/Xservers

where /usr/kde, of course, is $KDEDIR.

The file itself should look like this:


- --------------------------------------------
# Xservers - local X-server list
#
# This file should contain an entry to start the server on the
# local display; if you have more than one display (not screen),
# you can add entries to the list (one per line).
# If you also have some X terminals connected which do not support XDMCP,
# you can add them here as well; you will want to leave those terminals
# on and connected to the network, else kdm will have a tougher time
# managing them. Each X terminal line should look like:
#       XTerminalName:0 foreign
#

:0 local at tty1 /usr/X11R6/bin/X vt7
:1 local at tty2 reserve /usr/X11R6/bin/X :1 vt8
:2 local at tty3 reserve /usr/X11R6/bin/X :2 vt9
:3 local at tty4 reserve /usr/X11R6/bin/X :3 vt10
:4 local at tty5 reserve /usr/X11R6/bin/X :4 vt11


### Don't change these two lines; they are hints for genkdmconf. ###
### Version 1.99 ###

Have a nice day.
