'''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KDE_Display_Manager KDM]''' - the '''K'''DE '''D'''isplay '''M'''anager - is designed for use with KDE. It supports theming, automatic login, and the automatic detection and use of multiple desktop environments. If the full KDE desktop environment has been installed, then KDM should already be available to be enabled.
Otherwise, to install KDM, enter the command:
sudo pacman -S kdebase-workspace
Additional themes for KDM can also be obtained by entering the command:
sudo pacman -S archlinux-themes-kdm

{{warning|KDM is only suitable for those using - or intending to use - KDE, itself. This is because KDM can only be installed as part of the KDE environment, which will otherwise be downloaded with it.}}
'''To enable KDM in Manjaro 0.8.2 or later''' (or if Plymouth has been removed), enter the command:
sudo systemctl enable kdm.service -f
'''To enable KDM in Manjaro 0.8.1 or earlier''' (or if Plymouth has been added), enter the command:
sudo systemctl enable kdm-plymouth.service -f
