if your using kdm then you should be able to select different x sessions. one of them being just x with no window manager.

Most of the time I find that the KDE is being called from ~/.xinitrc.

You should be able to comment out the call to KDE or whatever else is being called from that configuration file.

Yes rename the .xinitrc in root's homedir, like auswipe said, and make an "xinit"
