NAME

genkdmconf - generate configuration files for kdm

SYNOPSIS

genkdmconf [--in /path/to/new/kdm-config-dir]
[--old-xdm /path/to/old/xdm-dir]
[--old-kde /path/to/old/kde-config-dir]
[--no-old] [--no-old-xdm] [--no-old-kde] [--old-scripts]
[--no-old-scripts] [--old-confs] [--no-backup]
[--no-in-notice]

DESCRIPTION

genkdmconf is used to generate configuration files for kdm.
If an older xdm/kdm configuration is found, its config files are "absorbed"; if it lives in the new target directory, its scripts are reused (and possibly modified) as well, otherwise the scripts are ignored and default scripts are installed.

OPTIONS

--in /path/to/new/kdm-config-dir
In which directory to put the new configuration. You can use this to support a $(DESTDIR), but not to change the final location of the installation - the paths inside the files are not affected.
Default is /etc/kde4/kdm.
--old-xdm /path/to/old/xdm-dir
Where to look for the config files of an xdm / older kdm. Default is to scan /etc/X11/kdm, $XLIBDIR/kdm, /etc/X11/xdm, $XLIBDIR/xdm; there in turn look for kdm-config and xdm-config.
Note that you possibly need to use --no-old-kde to make this take effect.
--old-kde /path/to/old/kde-config-dir
Where to look for the kdmrc of an older kdm.
Default is to scan /etc/kde4 and {/usr,/usr/local, {/opt,/usr/local}{kde3,kde,kde2,kde1}}/share/config.
--no-old
Don't look at older xdm/kdm configurations, just create default config.
--no-old-xdm
Don't look at older xdm configurations.
--no-old-kde
Don't look at older kdm configurations.
--old-scripts
Directly use all scripts from the older xdm/kdm configuration.
--no-old-scripts
Don't use scripts from the older xdm/kdm configuration even if it lives in the new target directory.
--old-confs
Directly use all ancillary config files from the older xdm/kdm configuration. This is usually a bad idea.
--no-backup
Overwrite/delete old config files instead of backing them up.
--no-in-notice
Don't put the notice about --in being used into the generated README.
