I just started KDE for you and it worked. Here are the details: KDE 4.8.3 Starting X is done by a script: sudo kldload i915kms sudo kldload acpi_call sudo chmod 666 /dev/acpi startx .xinitrc looks like this (after deleting the comments): xset m 10 3 xmodmap .xmodmaprc exec /usr/local/bin/startkde I only started konqueror to open FreeBSD.org.
