If you can't get kdm working, and you need shutdown control from the login screen I suggest you take a look at wdm, which is the kdm equivalent for window maker. It works fine for me with kde3, and doesn't cause the annoying font problems that I get with kdm. HTH. Cheers Dave -- To UNSUBSCR

Hi, I'm rather new to debian but I want to update to kde 3.0.1. I modified my sources.list and run apt-get update. kdelibs4 is broken by UNSATISFIED dependencies of libxml2 (>= 2.4.19-4) and libxslt1 (>= 1.0.16). I can not add these by typing + nor remove by - Probably I have to remove conflict
