Well, yeah, we can always add yet another hack to .cshrc to get around another
strange software inconsistancy.  For once, I thought I'd try to delve a little
deeper.

FYI - I appears that changing :0 to :0.0 in /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers (I'm running
an older kdm which still uses this file) appears to make the restored konsoles
use ":0.0" as their DISPLAY, providing consistency.  This isn't the "correct"
thing to do, as we are starting servers here, not screens.  But kdm loads 
struct display->name from that text which serves as the source for DISPLAY from
the get go.

I haven't figured out where in the KDE the .0 is added to the display name.  But
it seems like it should be added sooner rather than later.
