You have to set the run level in Slackware as it defaults to runlevel 3.
Make graphical logins possible: edit /etc/rc.d/rc.4 to make the kdm session manager the first choice if that's what you want for the session manager, I always do;-) Then edit /etc/inittab to change the "default runlevel" from a "3" to a "4" like this:
# Default runlevel. (Do not set to 0 or 6)
id:4:initdefault:
After doing this the other virtual terminal (except tty 6) are disabled. Just add a 4 in between the other 3 and 5. 1235 becomes 12345 for each tty. If graphical logins are not enabled, the command xwmconfig can be run as each user so that the default window manager is set to KDE, GNOME, etc. The other thing is to have it automatically login to a default user. That can be set up through KDE for sure, but I've never done it. Looks simple enough to do in the menus. That can also be configured to not use a password ;-)
Last thing you're going to want to do is have KDE run a program on start up. I'm actually not sure how to set this to come up with, say, Firefox each time I log in, but I'm sure it's easy enough to figure out for your program.
Hopefully that will get you going ;-) Let me know if it doesn't:-O
