I just installed knoppmyth and I want to know why use gdm with QT? don't you need a base kde install to have it work?
to have which work? Qt is a dependency of KDE, so it obviously can't require KDE ... GDM is the GNOME Desktop Manager, which means it uses GNOME libraries, which include GTK+ .. it doesn't mean you're running the whole GNOME Desktop, so don't worry as much about it taking up resources, it's small compared to the whole GNOME desktop ...
On the other hand, if you'd rather stick to one major toolkit (Qt), you can run XDM, which is part of X (it's the "X Desktop Manager") ... i don't know if it is as flexible as GDM, i haven't used it in years ... personally, i think i use KDM (mostly because my FE used to be a desktop and I preferred KDE), so i don't have to load GTK+ (or even have it installed) ... it does require kdelibs, but again, it's not like you're running the full KDE
