Perhaps you should be using xdm-shadow?  I seem to remember having had
this problem in the days when I was running bo.

Look at /etc/init.d/xdm and see whether it starts xdm or xdm-shadow. Try
swapping which one it starts (provided that they are not effectively the
same file, as they are on my hamm system).
