KDM: Getting Rid of failsafe, default, custom Session Option

Has anyone figured out how to do this?  I've figured out the *.desktop method the new KDM (with 3.2.2) uses, so I've gotten Gnome, XFce4, and fluxbox all to show up successfully.  But I just can't seem to find where those other options come from.  I've looked at kdmrc and the Xsession (both XDM's and KDM's) and I've commented out what I think might be the offending lines, but they still show up.

Anyone know?  Thanks.

The answer is in the "Configuring session types" section.  Basically, create failsafe.desktop, et. al. files in the /sessions folder and put this line in them:

Hidden=true
