Now, After all those nice words about Free BSD I tried it.
I downloaded teh ISO image and started installing.
After a while I decided to use FTP, because the ISO image does not have all
the correct contents (that will cost another full day phone bill... :-))

But now, when i cab start up Free bsd i want to get into a graphical shell.
I mount the cdrom, then try to start kde by typing kde.
It starts looking for all sorts of things and gives messages that a
connection to the Xserver could not be made.

First of all: what commands do i have to give in a standard situation (i am
logged in as root) to start kde or gnome sessions?
Secondly: where can i find the appropriate manual on the internet to find
these commands?

Third: should i download /configure a specific part of  my installation to
be able to start kde or gnome?

If anyone can help me? Thanx!!

regards, Wim
