You need to change the ttyv8 line to:

	ttyv8   "/usr/local/bin/kdm -nodaemon" xterm   on  secure

Your current setting is trying to spawn multiple copies of kdm, all of
which (aside from the first one) are failing because the first one is
running. The "Unknown command line option", you can't do anything
about, so just ignore it.
