Well, there's a couple of things you might want to check over. This may be redundant, but what troubleshooting isn't?
Anyways, check the file /etc/rc.conf for the following:
[code:1]DISPLAYMANAGER="kdm"
XSESSION="KDE-3.3.0"
[/code:1]
DISPLAYMANAGER should be "kdm" while XSESSION should be, well, anything you name the session. XDM looks in /etc/X11/Sessions for available WM/DMs. Make sure you have a session for all of your WM/DMs. For KDE, create (if one does not already exist) a file, preferably kde-<version of kde> and inside, the only line should be:
[code:1]#!/bin/sh
/usr/kde/<version of kde>/bin/startkde
[/code:1]
I really doubt this is an X issue if you can boot into Gnome. Can you boot into KDE if you use GDM? Do you even have GDM installed?
NOTE: GDM does not look in /etc/X11/Sessions. It looks somewhere else.
