Package: kdm Version: 4:3.2.1-1 Severity: important Tags: sid Since 3.2.1 you have to select session type to be KDE manually when you first login via KDM. This is a change from older versions where it gave you a KDE session by default.
For new users this is very confusing since when you log in, all you get is a simple console. (A barebones x session.) People are liable to think that after upgrading their entire KDE system is now suddenly broken. KDM remembers your old session choice the next time you log in, so you only have to select KDE once for it to work for all future sessions. Still this change of behaviour is very confusing.
