Package: kdm (4:3.5.7-4~bpo40+1) [backports]

X display manager for KDE

kdm manages a collection of X servers, which may be on the local host or remote machines. It provides services similar to those provided by init, getty, and login on character-based terminals: prompting for login name and password, authenticating the user, and running a session. kdm supports XDMCP (X Display Manager Control Protocol) and can also be used to run a chooser process which presents the user with a menu of possible hosts that offer XDMCP display management.

A collection of icons to associate with individual users is included with KDE, but as part of the kdepasswd package.

The menu package will help to provide KDM with a list of window managers that can be launched, if the window manager does not register with KDM already. Most users won't need this.

This package is part of KDE, and a component of the KDE base module. See the 'kde' and 'kdebase' packages for more information.
