+ If you are unable to login to X via kdm after portupgrading to the latest
+ kdebase port and you're getting these or similar messages on the console

+ /kernel: Aug 13 17:12:10 kiste kdm: :0[447]: Can't execute
+ "/usr/local/share/config/kdm/Xstartup": No such file or directory
+ /kernel: Aug 13 17:12:10 kiste kdm: :0[432]: Cannot execute startup script

+ /kernel: Aug 13 17:12:10 kiste kdm: :0[448]: Can't execute

+ "/usr/local/share/config/kdm/Xsetup": No such file or directory
+
+ please do the following:
+
+ 1.) Copy /usr/local/share/config/kdm/kdmrc away to a safe place, for example
+ your home directory ( cp /usr/local/share/config/kdm/kdmrc ~/ )
+
+ 2.) Run, as root: genkdmconf --no-old
+
+ 3.) Put your copy of kdmrc back to /usr/local/share/config/kdm/kdmrc (cp
+ ~/kdmrc /usr/local/share/config/kdm/ )
+
+ Optional step 4.) Run, as root: genkdmconf (without any options) to update
+ your kdmrc to the lastest configfile format
+
+ Note for advanced users: Substitute /usr/local with your custom PREFIX if
+ you're using one.
