Your /etc/X11/Sessions/Xsession file is still there because there is nothing
wrong with it and I have absolutely no doubt that it still runs every time
you log in otherwise you would surely know it.
As to the disappearing Xsession in the kdm session list arer you sure that you
*ever* had a file called Xsession there? When KDE saves a custom session it
is called "custom" and apart from that I have only seen
kde,gnome,failsafe,default xfce4 etc but never have I seen an Xsession in
there. Its possible that I am in an alternative universe though... or else
haven't been particularly observant because I dont generally save sessions.
I think you may be confusing Xsession file with the generic term Xsession
meaning a session in X. If you logged in as a 2nd KDE user, saved a session
and/or had a crash the saved session could have been corrupted or lost
resulting in such a message. A session generally means a desktop with a
couple opened apps that you want it to start again next time.
As I said I could be wrong but I have never had a session called Xsession in
kdm in Suse9.2 or FC3 that I just tried here.
