(You'll need to compile at least part of GNOME too (up to gnome-core,
which contains the panel and its applets), of course, which can be
non-trivial.  It's probably not worth it if you want just the pager.)

#!/bin/sh
# It looks like the sleeps do speed up the startup time
(sleep 1 && exec kaudioserver) &
(sleep 1 && exec kwmsound) &

(sleep 1 && exec kfm) &
(sleep 2 && exec kcontrol -init) &

(sleep 1 && exec krootwm) &
(sleep 1 && exec kpanel) &
(sleep 3 && exec kbgndwm) &
sleep 2 ; exec kwm

Well, if you look at your .xinitrc or your .Xclients file, you should
see that startkde gets started when you load x (that is, if you use
kde!). Well, what you need to do is create an .Xclients or .xinitrc file
with the following in it:

#!/bin/sh

exec /bin/bash
sleep 2
(sleep 1 && exec kaudioserver) &
(sleep 1 && exec kwmsound) &

(sleep 1 && exec kfm) &
(sleep 2 && exec kcontrol -init) &

(sleep 1 && exec kpanel) &

This will start windowmaker and then load kde stuff. You can take out
the audioserver and kwmsound if you do not use kde sounds.

Good luck.
