I'm guessing that if you installed KDE in the normal way, you won't have to mess with permissions. Try editing the .xinitrc file to have only the line: startkde or create the file like that. Then when the user types startx it will start kde by default. If you'd rather leave fvwm as default, you can just type startkde to get into kde, leave the .xinitrc file alone and type startx to get fvwm. If you've already tried this let us know.
