Yes, that is correct.
However, you should probably just reboot the machine, log in as root,
and run "ps -a | grep gdm" and "ps -a | grep kdm" That will answer the
question as to which *dm is being used. Then you only need to perform
one of the above tests.

Depends on the above answer to which *dm is being used. Lets get that
figured out first.

Either *dm can login to KDE or Gnome... so knowing that most users use
Gnome doesn't really help :)
