Hi,

Whats the recommended way to switch to KDM in FC5 ?

In previous FC releases, I would just edit the file /etc/sysconfig/desktop so 
it used KDE i.e.

DESKTOP="KDE"
DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE"

However, with FC5 this file is empty, whereas in previous FC versions I have 
used it contained GNOME/GDM entries. 

Changing this file seems to work, but as it was emtpy it makes me wonder if it 
is the still the best/only way to make this change ?

Chris
