Thank you, that definitively solved the problem.
I'm getting a little confused about these managers. What is the
difference between display, session, login and window manager and
what are examples for them? I'm asking just for curiosity...

I missed the previous parte of the thread, so I am not
sure if what you want is to change the login manager
or the session manager.
To change the default session manager I used:
update-alternatives --set x-session-manager
/usr/
I can't figure that out! I summarize the previous state:
1.) console says: kdm and wdm are started (kdm because of the
"false" value in the conf-script, wdm because it's the default-display-
manager)
2.) kdm takes over and runs kde. According to pstree and ps no wdm
is running.
What I did:
1.)

it obviously doesn't. In this case at least only kdm is started
OK, thank you, your suggestions put some light on the problem. But I still have
questions...

display manager. That doesn't change anything, yet.
What's in /etc/X11/default-display-manager ? Failing that, in
/etc/init.d/{g|k|x|w}dm, is HEED_DEFAULT_DISPLAY_MANAGER always set to true?
And how can I tell which display manager has
display
manager.
What can I learn from that? It seems to start two display managers.
Strange enough, I don't get any error messages. But in which conf-file
can I actually set the display manager that is used?! I tried dpkg-
reconfigure {gdm|kdm|wdm|xdm} which lets me choose the default
