Re: [kde-linux] Lost /etc/init.d/kdm

I can easily enough simply run kdm from my own catchall-looseends script I
placed in /etc/init.d etc. But this would not service the pid file or shut
it down correctly. Where might I get an init.d script without installing
kdm from Debian?

You can tell aptitude to just download the package and then extract it

% aptitude -d install kdm
(-d meaning "just download")

Then get the .deb from /var/cache/apt/archives and extract it with
% dpkg -x packagefile

Cheers,
