Create a file in the user's home directory named ".xinitrc" and put the 
following line in it:

exec startkde

This will give individual users KDE as a default desktop.  For more details on 
this and booting into graphics mode check out the relevent portion of the 
handbook at:

Hope this helps,
Ju
