You don't have to 'trash' anything. just run dtconfig -d to disable the
dtlogin from coming up when you boot your box. You will just get a
console prompt, and you can then set up your .xinitrc file to start up
whatever wm you choose.
You can re-enable dtlogin using dtconfig -e later on, if you change your
mind.

*OR*

You can go to this page ---> http://twirl.mcc.ac.uk/~zzassgl/wm.html
<--- and follow the instructions to set up another window manager entry
onto the session menu. In this page they illustrate how to set up fvwm2
under CDE, but you can modify the process to suit your wm of choice.

Regards,
Paul
