Hi, welcome to FreeBSD!
Take a look at
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x11-wm.html.
The long and short of it is make sure you have KDE installed and then do
echo "exec startkde" > ~/.xinitrc
Now when you run startx KDE should launch automatically. The FreeBSD
handbook is a wonderful resource and can be found at
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/index.html, most
of your questions can be answered by reading it.

Subject: Question - startx, KDE
Hello,
I am not only a FreeBSD newbie but I am also a newbie to this list. If this
is not the correct place to ask quetions like the one below please advise
and I will follow. Thanks.
I have FreeBSD 5.1 installed, I know the startx command and am familiar with
using it from Mandrak-Linux. However, when I use the startx command with
FreeBSD it gives me an X-Window environment. What file do I have to
configure to have KDE start by using the startx command and how do I
configure it?
Thanks for all of your help and response in advance.
Eric
