-<answer>
-<note
-><para
->Your distribution/&UNIX; flavour may have its own setup tools to change this (&eg; <application
->YaST</application

-<para
->First, you need to change to the <quote
->xdm runlevel</quote
-> (runlevel 5 on &RedHat; and &SuSE; systems) by editing your <filename
->/etc/inittab</filename
-> file. In the file, you should have a line saying <userinput
->id:3:initdefault:</userinput
->. Change it to <userinput
->id:5:initdefault:</userinput
->. Now, at the end of the file, comment out the following line: <literal
->x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/X11/xdm -nodaemon</literal
-> and replace it with <userinput
->x:5:respawn:<replaceable
->/opt/kde/</replaceable
->bin/tdm -nodaemon</userinput
->. <note
-><para
->The location of &tdm; may differ on your system.</para
-></note
-></para>
-<para
->For changes to take effect immediately, type <command
->init 5</command
-> (for &RedHat; systems) at the shell prompt. <caution

->It is risky to initiate a graphical login without checking beforehand whether it works. If it fails to work, you would be in for a hard time getting back....</para

->For FreeBSD, you should edit the file <filename

->&kde; Control Centre</application
-> and choose <menuchoice
-><guisubmenu
->Desktop</guisubmenu
-> <guisubmenu
->Behaviour</guisubmenu

->Left button</guilabel

->Settings</guimenu
-><guimenuitem
->Configure Konqueror</guimenuitem
-></menuchoice
->, then <guilabel

-<question>
-<para
->&kde; (&tdm;) does not read my <filename
->.bash_profile</filename
->!</para>
-</question>
-<answer>
-<para
->The login managers<application
->xdm</application
-> and &tdm; do not run a login shell, so <filename
->.profile</filename
->, <filename
->.bash_profile</filename
->, &etc; are not sourced. When the user logs in, <application
->xdm</application
-> runs <command
->Xstartup</command
-> as root and then <command
->Xsession</command
-> as user. So the normal practice is to add statements in <filename
->Xsession</filename
-> to source the user profile. Please edit your <filename
->Xsession</filename
-> and <filename
->.xsession</filename
-> files.</para>
