Can't Get Different KDM Greeter Styles

I'm installing KDE 3.3 from the RedHat Enterprise WS4 Bundle. I have selected various GUI styles from via the KDE Login Manager as well as manually editing the kdmrc file. I put in the "UseTheme=false" option that many have suggested, but no matter what I do, I still get the same lame, grey-rectangle login screen when I launch kdm. I can see the changes from changing other greeter options, like Logo and Fonts, just nothing from the GUIStyle.

Has anybody encountered this before or have any advice?

Thanks,
Jon
