^^^ Please don't use HTML mail for lists, most of us can't read it very 
easily.

For the "no modules loaded for 'kde' service, try adding this into 
/etc/pam.conf:

kde     auth    sufficient      pam_skey.so
kde     auth    requisite       pam_cleartext_pass_ok.so
kde     auth    required        pam_unix.so                     try_first_pass
kde     account required        pam_unix.so
kde     password required       pam_permit.so
kde     session required        pam_permit.so

The error message about ttyv8, I'm not sure about.  Could you send the exact 
error message?  In the meantime, check in /etc/ttys for the line about ttyv8
The default is something like this:

ttyv8   "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon"  xterm   off secure

if the "off" says "on" already, then probably you have xdm running on that 
tty, so you need to turn it off, kdm can't run on the same one.

to have KDM start up automatically on ttyv8 instead of xdm, you would do 
something like:

ttyv8 "/usr/local/bin/kdm -nodaemon" xterm on secure

but I strongly suggest you get it to the point you can run KDM as root from a 
console, and log in as a user, before you do this.
