I wouldn't recommend the 'rpm -e kde*' kind of approach at all.

At worst, you can move your kde settings...

Try killing X first...
<Control><Alt><Backspace>

and then login again

If problem persists...Kill X again per above and then go to a virtual
console,
<Control><Alt><F1>
Then login to virtual console as user and execute
mv ~/.kde .kde-bak
Then return to GUI login
<Control><Alt><F7>
and you should be functional.

You may want to restore some settings from ~/.kde-bak afterwards
