    Package: kdm
    Version: 4:3.3.0-1
    Severity: important

    After upgrading KDM to 3.3 version, it doesn't starts any session (of
    any window manager or desktop, including KDE).

    In the KDM main screen, I type my username and password, I choose the
    session, and when I click on "Login", KDM resets.

    I tried using the /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc included in the package, with the
    same result.

    By now I must use gdm or similar.

    see if copying the attached file to /etc/kde3/kdm/Xsession helps.
