First, kdm is the graphical login thingy (like xdm, gdm). It should have a drop down menu on it where you can shoose your wm. Second, this might be a job for dpkg-reconfigure. Third, I've found this all a hopelessly anarchic feature no matter which distribution I've used. None of these things (kde, gnome, enlightenment, ...) play well with each other, and each relishes the chance to step on the others' toes. And, if you use xinit instead of *dm, things change again. Best might be to search the archives and try what you find. Once you get it working, don't swap back and forth between wm's or you'll just give it the chance to become confused again. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
