putting kde 3.2 into the login manager?

ok guys its taken three days to compile kde3.2 on my laptop, i did it as a normal user for safety, all the files are in my home dir but when i run the startkde script it just starts the login manager and kde3.2 isnt listed (there are several others and i can add more in the config tool but only copies of ones i have) how do i get it as an option. im using Debian (installed from knoppix) its been a hard slog to get here so i dont want to give up now. any help appreciated

Re: putting kde 3.2 into the login manager?

see bug 75882 or 68331. The way KDE3.2 starts up has changed considerable from 3.1.

My sympathies. I unsuccessfully tried to compile 3.2 for Mandrake, eventually found rpm's. For Debians...did you know KDE3.2.2 is in unstable?
'apt-get -t unstable install kde' gets most of it in one big install (you have to remove 3.1 first). but maybe you wanted a more 'custom' install.
