create a .xinit.rc file in your home directory and put in this file the name of the binary to launch.
For example:
startkde for kde
gnome-session for gnome
and look in the doc of other window managers if you want to use another one.

actually the file is called .xinitrc, no extra dot :)

what you need in the file is:
Code:
exec < windowmanager >
ie, as hacktarux said above, either "exec startkde" or "exec gnome-session"
