Create a file called ~/.Xclients, and in it put:

exec startkde      # if you want to use kde or:
exec gnome-session # if you want to use gnome, or:
exec afterstep 	   # if you want afterstep

Be sure to do two other things, first put `#!/bin/bash' as the first
line in the file, and only *one* of those three lines (all three will do
funny things, it won't kill your system, but it isn't a great idea
either).
