You d'load/install the wm/de you want, then tell X to open with with
it. Again, documentation is your friend. Something like:
http://wiki.debian.org/xinitrc
Note that you're going to get a ton of different responses to a
question like, "Which wm/de should I use?" So, your best bet is to try
some. It's (usually) easy and (usually) free.
Again, do, at least, a google search for an answer before bothering
the list with questions.
