On a whim I tried this really big hammer. I created a patch to strip from the kdebase code
all references of consolekit.c and CONSOLE_KIT. Seemed like a reasonable idea.
No luck. Still can't login with KDM.
Would somebody please provide me a knee-bone-connected-to-the-thigh-bone explanation or
simple flow chart how KDM runs through everything? I'm still leaning toward this being
an authentication problem. Perhaps with some kind of flow chart I can try something.
Thanks!
