Hi Frederic,
strictly speaking GNOME and KDE are "Desktops" not merely "Window
Managers" which run under desktops. I've also replied in another response
to your question advising you to edit your $HOME/.Xclient-defaults if you
are using RedHat. If you are not, then I think that the system-wide place
to edit should be /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/Xclients
If you edit that then everyone on the system will be forced to use
that. There is also the utility "switchdesk" which is available on RH
systems from the "Start"/footprint.
