Both Gnome and KDE wrap the window-manager in a Session manager. You
should be able to get KDE starting if you install a few more KDE
packages so that you get the KDE session manager installed.
Once that is installed 'startx' will run the session manager, and KDE
insists on trumping all the other alternatives, so you should get KDE
starting from 'startx' that way.
Otherwise, do as someone else suggested and install 'kdm' so you log in
from a graphical shell.

Andrew.
