cannot execute "usr/kde/bin/kdm"

gnome-session does not invoke anything except the error message:
INIT: cannot execute "usr/kde/bin/kdm"
INIT: Id "x" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes.

My xorg.conf is generated by hwd -x. After rebooting, I can log in, but the resolution is stuck in 680x***.
If I try to open gnome by gnome-session, it give the error message:
(gnome-session:10890): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display?

Any way to solve it?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Re: cannot execute "usr/kde/bin/kdm"

i believe you want

/opt/kde/bin/kdm

or put kdm in rc.conf under DAEMONS
