then make sure you don't have .xsession, .xinitrc, .Xclients
in your $HOME directory.
edit /etc/inittab and change the xdm line to point to kdm
#id:3:initdefault:
id:5:initdefault:
# Run xdm in runlevel 5
#x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/X11/xdm -nodaemon
x:5:respawn:/opt/kde/bin/kdm -nodaemon
then you restart your computer :)
