  the answer depends on exactly what you want, my guess is that you want
kde session manager (it starts kde WM and the rest of kde desktop). I am
not sure which package it is in, but I know it got somehow installed on
my machine - you should probably use someting like kde-task ...

  once you have a session manager it will be started rather then window
manager (which is a problem because sometime you might want to have
session manager installed but start a window manager)

  check the files under /etc/X11 to see how the whole thing works.

  if you have more than one session manager you might want to use:

  update-alternatives --config x-session-manager
