You could set gdm as your default Display Manager
(/etc/X11/default-display-manager) , and set it running when your
system boots (/etc/rc2.d/ ).
Then when you could use graphic login, and choose your favorite Window
Manager. Don't forget set it as default.
If you don't like DM, then you just cancel it in /etc/rc2.d/ .
