What does "not work" mean? What exactly happens? Have you restarted X
after makimg the above changes? It's not enough just to log out and in
again since you want to change the display manager (not just the window
manager). "init 3 && init 5" from a console should do the trick.

You mean .Xclients-default? It just seems to execute startkde on my
system. That won't change the display manager either.

Silly question: you *have* installed KDE Desktop, right?
