KDM is gone :(

Hello,

A few weeks ago I added KDM to my fresly installed archlinux installation as a deamon.
It worked great ! But than I choose " console login ". And now I don't get a graphical loginmanager anymore.

How can I get it back?

try from console login,

    exec startkde......

If it says X is missing, do

    startx.... then .....exec startkde

Good luck!

lol now he starts x automatic after I login. I don't need to type ' startx' anymore but I just wan't my graphical loginmanager back. KDM is added as deamon in /etc/rc.conf a long time ago... But after I chose ' Console login'  he must saved this somewere as default setting...

a longshot but maybe it works,  mv /opt/kde/share/config/kdm/kdmrc /tmp

and restart kdm..
