$HOME/.face.icon works for me (using kde-4.1.0, currently in updates-testing). I'll see about testing/verifying the other locations.

Sorry about that... I have started kdm with /usr/bin/kdm --nodaemon --debug 0x804, and seen that the open syscall does not fail for .default, but is still not shown. [root@mawu faces]# grep -i "default.face" kdm.log open("/usr/share/apps/kdm/faces/.default.face.icon", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 16 The chdirs work as well The strace log is included as an attachment.
