Here is one way to do it:

create a file in your $HOME directory called:
   .xinitrc

Enter the following lines in ".xinitrc":

exec startkde
#exec gnome-session

Save the file and exit the X server. Now type "startx".

To use Gnome instead of KDE uncomment the "exec gome-session" line and comment 
out the "exec startkde" line.
