I patched kdm.conf with a sleep before any other commands will be
executed. For debugging kdm.conf wites 2 messages into syslog: "start
kdm and sleep" and "resume kdm after sleep". Maybe you need to extend
the sleep time, if your graphic card takes more time to load the nvidia
driver than mine. I respawn kdm, so I can cancel the message boxes if
any error occurs and kdm will start up later.

This is only a workaround!

Does anybody has an idea how to recognise a ready loaded graphics driver
from the kernel? Looking for /dev/fb0 is not safe for every hardware
configuration. A solution should work with any free and proprietary
graphics driver.
