The only thing left is to tell the X Window System that you want to use KDE instead of the default twm. This list is not supposed to ask technical questions, so I can't give you a technical answer. But I can direct you to the FreeBSD Handbook, section 5.7.2.2, which tells you everything you need to know. The Handbook is online at <http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/>; and if you installed it, locally at </usr/share/doc/handbook/>. David
