I'm not sure if this helps, but I believe all i have to do to get to fluxbox (in fact i'm sure of it) is to select fluxbox from the menu in gdm. If you use xdm, .xsession would be the right file (you can select that in gdm as "custom"). I dont know for kde.
I always forget about fancy point-&-click smart configurations like gdm, so it took me a while for someone on the forums to point out that if i just bothered to look in the session chooser dialog i'd have seen that my custom setting was right there, waiting to be selected.
