>Description:
If the session type is set to default, then kdm fails silently if the user
doesn't have a ~/.xsession script.
This seems to be a FAQ and commonly repeated bug report.
This patch sets the session type to "kde" and falls through to run
"startkde" if the session is "default" but ~/.xsession does not exist
or is not executable.
JJ Behrens <jj@nttmcl.com> suggested fixing this so people wouldn't be
confused (about this issue) anymore.
