Note, I ment 'read' when I used 'write' above. I've investigated some more, and the problem seem to be that kdm changed its understanding of the THEME setting. In /etc/default/kdm.d/20_debian-edu, we use THEME=/usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/debian-edu Changing this to THEME=/usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/debian-edu/debian-edu.xml make kdm able to understand the theme. There are still visual problems with it (the buttons are missing and the time stamp do not show up), but kdm do not fail to start. So either we had a bug in debian-edu-artwork which failed to trigger a problem with kdm in lenny, or the sematic of the THEME setting in kdm changed between lenny and squeeze. Only the kdm maintainer can tell what the intended behavour for the THEME setting in /etc/default/kdm.d/ was. Anyway, I suggest we change /etc/default/kdm.d/20_debian-edu in debian-edu-artwork for both Lenny and Squeeze to work around the problem (by adding /debian-edu.xml to the THEME setting), and fix up the theme to work in both Lenny and Squeeze as soon as possible.
