Left hand side, menus: "Documentation" 3. See some flags, I selected "English" 4. Select "FAQ" 5. Specific to your question, look at FAQ 3.7 "How do I start KDE?" At that same web site is lots of other information about KDE. Marty Cawthon ChipChat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
