[Bug 148706] Re: kdmtheme module can not apply changes

[klerfayt]

hi there seems to be described two different bugs in replies:
1)the bug that original reporter describes as "not functioning kdmtheme manager" is fixed with 1.2.2 version:
http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/KDM+Theme+Manager?content=22120
(which I have trouble compiling ...)

2)the other bug is actually independent of this and can't really be considered a bug:
the changes applied to kdm settings will only be visible after reboot or after "sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart" (one example of not applying changes after you log out: try to set manually path to different kdm theme - changes will not be visible if you log out)
workaround to get old behaviour back:
sudo mv /etc/default/kdm.d/20_kubuntu_default_settings /somewhere
add "UseTheme=True" and "Theme=/usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/your\ favorite\ theme" to /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc
