Alex, have you tried logging into Gnome.  You may find that logging into 
Gnome will actually log into KDE - that's what happened when I upgraded to 
KDE2.2.

Try that first, if that doesn't work then you can edit /etc/x11/prefdm 
making kdm your preferred desktop manager:

preferred=kdm
#if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/desktop ]; then
# � � � . /etc/sysconfig/desktop >/dev/null 2>&1
# � � � [ -n "$DISPLAYMANAGER" ] && DESKTOP=$DISPLAYMANAGER
# � � � if [ "$DESKTOP" = GNOME -o "$DESKTOP" = Gnome ]; then
# � � � � � � � preferred=gdm
# � � � elif [ "$DESKTOP" = "KDE" -o "$DESKTOP" = "KDE1" -o "$DESKTOP" = 
"KDE2"
]; then
# � � � � � � � preferred=/usr/bin/kdm
# � � � elif [ "$DESKTOP" = AnotherLevel ] ; then
# � � � � � � � �preferred=/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm
# � � � fi
#fi

Good luck.
