If you select the "default" option in kdm to start X you would have to add the script to your ~/.xinitrc. (See man xinit and man startx.) Just make sure to background the script (i.e. script &) and put it before the 'exec icewm' line or your WM will wait for the script to finish or the script will be run AFTER your x-session. Usefull HOWTO's are the XWindow System Architecture Overview HOWTO and the XWindow-User HOWTO.
