I had a little trouble with this myself. I tracked down the (problem??) to
/etc/X11/xdm/Xsession. ~/.xsession is supposed to be executed upon startup
of X from xdm (or kdm), but it is not unless to choose default. The default
option falls through the case statement and then executes ~/.xsession.
So just copy /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession to ~/.xsession and edit as necessary, then
choose default from the KDM login screen or edit ~/.wmrc and replace text
with default. Here is a copy of mine:

sysresources=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/.Xresources
sysmodmap=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/.Xmodmap
# merge in defaults and keymaps
if [ -f $sysresources ]; then
xrdb -merge $sysresources
fi
if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
xmodmap $sysmodmap
fi
# User defined key mapping
xmodmap -e "keycode 22 = BackSpace"
# GOLD key
xmodmap -e "keycode 77 = KP_F1"
if [ -f $userresources ]; then
xrdb -merge $userresources
fi
if [ -f $usermodmap ]; then
xmodmap $usermodmap
