If you login using the login manager, you can usually choose from a drop-down
box or something which Window Manager you want to use. For example, in KDM,
you click on Menu -> Session Type and choose which one you want. Sometimes
it will save that as the new default for you, depending on your login
manager.
If you login at the console and then type startx, I think it looks in
your .xinitrc. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/changeman.html
Hope this helps!
