I did re-installs, probably not exactly the same, but I do now have a tdm
file in /etc/init.d. And I seem to be working ok after an extra full
power down boot. Fingers crossed of coarse. Thanks Slavec.

Hi Gene,
now I realized one potential problem when updating from a previous
version: During the tdm-trinity upgrade, the previous version of the
package performs an unwanted removal of the init script
/etc/init.d/tdm. If your system uses init scripts, this can be a
critical issue. The best way to get the init script back is:
apt-get purge tdm-trinity && apt-get install tdm-trinity

Got it, re-installed the heart of tde, 20 or so files with gksudo
synaptic, ran the dpkg-reconfigure tdm-trinity again, no errors I
hadn't seen before.
logged out, in due time the tdm login showed up, this time with a
real window manager menu. Default (last session) checked, switched
it to tde, clicked on login and everything seems back to normal.
But the damned bots are back to DDOSing me. Its one of the cz bots,
and while iptables claims its running and that address is shown as
dropped, it also is not incrementing ANY of the counters. I guess
pita that it is restarting everything, its time for a full shutdown
reboot.

1-Make sure tdm-trinity is installed and configured.
2-Purge lightdm, sddm, kdm, gdm and any other dm you can find
besides tdm.
Did that, now the dpkg-reconfigure tdm-trinity kills the xsession
and restarts xfce4 w/o presenting a choice menu, it just restartx
xfce4 And now I've got 10 minutes or more getting everything
restarted. grrr.
3-Make sure /etc/X11/default-display-manager
exists and contains
/opt/trinity/bin/tdm.
It exists, and does contain the above.
