(This is hoary, apologies if it's corrected in breezy)

When istalling kdm after gdm is installed, the user will always be prompted for
the default x-session-manager, even with debconf/priority=critical and the value
preseeded.  I had to directly hack the debconf database to have
Name: shared/default-x-display-manager
Template: shared/default-x-display-manager
Value: gdm
Owners: gdm, kdm
Flags: seen
Variables:
 choices = gdm, kdm
to achieve an unattended installation.
