    Trying to set up remote graphical access via VNC to a SuSE 8.2 box with
    KDE 3.2.3 installed.

    The VNC portion of the setup is fine; users can connect to the box and
    they get a totally blank X session as user nobody.

    But, there is no kdm login screen appearing in the X window. The SuSE
    Release notes say to run "SuSEconfig --module kdm3" and restart the X
    server. With the kdebase3-SuSE package removed however, YaST reports
    that there is no kdm3 module.

    As I understand it, the kdebase3-SuSE package should not be reinstalled
    after upgrading KDE. If true, then what changes need to be made
    manually to enable remote graphical login?

    Thanks!
    Mark
