The kdmrc doesn't have a GreeterScreen in it.   I found the position 
option and tried to change different options with no success.

As the system is in a remote location, I will try it later but this is a 
direction to start.  I will have to test it.

GreeterScreen is not listed in the kdm handbook.

I see that it is in kdmrc on FC20 but not 19.

Thanks for pointing me in a direction.
