TRy creating a file in your homedir called .xinitrc, and put "kde" in it as
single line if you want kde, or "enlightenment" if that's more your kind of
windowmanager.

Since you have no windowmanager, you'll need a console editor. You can edit at
the console with many programs; for example "joe", which is fairly simple (at
least compared to vi). To save with joe, you need to type CTRL-k followed by
CTRL-x.

So in your case: "joe .xinitrc" will do the job.
