What I do is just put a line in your .xsession with the command to start
 the window manager ... I use windowmaker :

   #!/bin/sh

   if [ -f $HOME/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/.workspace_state ]; then
           sh $HOME/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/.workspace_state &
   fi
   exec wmaker


And when I enter my username and password from the xdm console, it will start
my window manager.
