Well, it looks like Keshav Tadimeti <keshav_tadimeti@yahoo.co.uk> opened
his big mouth again, on Sat, 16 Mar 2002 09:50:12 +0530, and spouted out
this:

First install kde -
cd /usr/ports/x11/kde2
pkg_add -r kde2
or
make install clean

Then edit ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession to load kde instead of tvwm.
the last line should read
exec startkde

Hope that helps,
Regards,
