Jim,

One thing that threw me for a loop was that when I booted up the computer
the first time it didn't send me to a login screen it just dumped me into
KDE.  Before I could switch window managers I had to logout of KDE.  After I
did that it gave me the expected login screen where I could choose what user
I wanted to login as and which window manager I wanted to use.

Try logging out of KDE, not shutting down, and see if it doesn't send you to
the graphical login screen where you can pick which window manager you want
to use.

Good luck,
Ian K. Harrell

I find the best way it to boot mandrake into a graphical login, which allows
you to choose window managers easily and also allows u to revert back to a
console login if required
