If you only want one X program running, and therefore do not need a window 
manager etc, then run startx from /etc/init.d/local

that script is run by root so you will want to use su to switch to the user you 
want to run as and then run startx, something like

su - username startx

forget all that autologin with kdm bollocks, it is not needed if you have 
described your problem accurately (ie you want to run one program only)
