	Taming The X Display Manager
		Finally, xdm automatically generates authorization information which can be used by the X display server to control which users on which hosts may access any given display.
		xdm was developed by Keith Packard shortly after he joined the X Consortium, primarily as a result of his frustration with trying to manually control X from an ASCII login environment.
		If xdm is run on a workstation console display, that display must run X. xdm does not work well in environments where multiple graphics systems attempt to share a display.

	XDM(1) manual page
		Xdm manages a collection of X displays, which may be on the local host or remote servers.
		Xdm also uses file locking on this file to attempt to eliminate multiple daemons running on the same machine, which would cause quite a bit of havoc.
		Because xdm can't allocate additional space for this task, it is useful to start xdm with a reasonably long command line (using the full path name should be enough).

	into the wibble [xdm-choose]
		This program is a highly configurable replacement chooser for XDM, which allows the user to type in a hostname and query/connect to it.
		This is separate from setting up XDM to launch xdm-choose for chooser requests (that is described in the README file).
		On most Linux installations, XDM is responsible for starting the X server which it then manages (producing the XDM username/password login screen).

	Debian -- Details of package xdm in sid
		xdm manages a collection of X servers, which may be on the local host or remote machines.
		xdm supports XDMCP (X Display Manager Control Protocol) and can also be used to run a chooser process which presents the user with a menu of possible hosts that offer XDMCP display management.
		If the sessreg package is installed, xdm can use the sessreg utility to register login sessions to the system utmp file; this, however, is not necessary for xdm to function.

		OK, try to use KDE's kdm session manager: if [ -x /opt/kde/bin/kdm ]; then exec /opt/kde/bin/kdm -nodaemon fi # If all you have is XDM, I guess it will have to do: if [ -x /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm ]; then exec /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon fi
