Wow, in the past I installed KDE just as you mentioned. But, at some

have to reply "Yes" to in order for KDE to work, as opposed to GDM
for gnome. But, I think there is a package for KDE/Gnome
interoperable capability there somewhere. I don't use KDE now as XFCE
does all I want it to do, without the glitz of CPU consuming daemons
that you can't remove. I've never looked back. Ric
XDM, KDM and GDM are each capable of letting you log in to Gnome, KDE,
XFCE, Openbox or whatever you pick.
Most of the reason they come with their own is because in order to have
a complete desktop environment you need a display manager, not because
there's anything peculiar about KDE's requirements for a display
manager that Gnome's or X's can't provide.
