I just installed openbox 2.3 on gentoo with kde 3.1. The documentation on making it start with kde was rather confusing, could someone please explain it?

Well, when you run KDE a script called "startkde" is executed. It can be found with:
locate startkde

Down the bottom of the file should be a line that says:
kwrapper ksmserver
Edit this line so it looks like this:
kwrapper ksmserver --windowmanager openbox

Then KDE should use OpenBox. See here (http://icculus.org/openbox/2/) for more information.
