Ah, true. That's actually uncommon for the display manager not to be under /usr/sbin/ as gdm3 and lightdm are. That's why I incorrectly assumed it would be true for kdm as well. > with the correct kdm.service file the display manager won't start and > the message about display-manager.service still exists. Did you actually reload the service file using "systemctl daemon reload"? > ● kdm.service - KDE Display Manager > Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/kdm.service; static) > Drop-In: /run/systemd/generator/kdm.service.d > └─50-kdm-$x-display-manager.conf > Active: failed (Result: start-limit) since mar 2015-01-06 17:40:24 > CET; 5min ago > Docs: man:kdm(1) > Process: 1570 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/kdm (code=exited, status=203/EXEC) There is your problem. systemd tries to execute /usr/sbin/kdm and not /usr/bin/kdm. Make sure you have fixed the unit file and run "systemctl daemon-reload". In any case, I am sure this isn't actually a bug in kdm but a configuration error on your computer. kdm works as expected after a fresh install. Adrian -- .''`.
