There is a Mandriva rpm for it. You need to configure the main, contrib, plf and updates urpmi repos using the instructions available at easyurpmi. After that do,
Code:
#urpmi kdmtheme

You run the KDE control center (kcontrol or in Mandriva terms "configure your desktop") and go to the admin section. The option to change you kdm theme should be available somewhere there.
