           Summary: Start New Session doesn't work in kde 3.3.0
           Product: kdm
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: ossi kde org
        ReportedBy: edulix iespana es


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Start New Session doesn't work in kde 3.3.0. 

For a user this seems a regression, because session switching worked forme in the kde \
3.2 suplied by suse 9.1. prof, though that was then a suse-only feature in kde 3.2, \
that has been added to normal kdm in version 3.3.

The problem is that when tI click in K Menu > Start New Session.. > Start New \
Session, it seems that new xfree server is launched because screen turns completly \
black, but after 1 second, I'm back to the screen I tried to start a new session \
from.

In /var/log/messages I get:

The unrecogniced lines in the kdmrc file are:

lines 63-64:

lines 72-73:
