That's what it is.  SuSE uses the same run level designators
as Redhat.

Is there some file buried somewhere in the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/lib
or /etc/X11/ hierarchies at which I should be looking?

Some more detail:  I had placed /opt on a seperate file system
(and different physical disk), and then in the course of fiddling around,
I had given that partition a 'noauto' option.  It was at this point that
I lost the KDM display manager. I undid my 'noauto' stuff, rebooted, but
it never went back to the way it was, despite my efforts to reconfigure
the graphical login with the SuSE tools provided.
