	Another way to go about it (especially if you are using 'startx')
is to create an .xinitrc file in your $HOME/ directory.  All it
needs are these two lines:

#!/bin/bash 
/usr/bin/kde

Substitute bash for whichever shell you prefer and the path to the
KDE binary to wherever it may be on your system.  I am using
Debian Linux and I'm pretty sure the paths are different between
Debian and RH.

	Best of luck!
