(I think there's where kdm installs to by default,
you can probably get by with just typing kdm)
or change the line in /etc/ttys:
ttyv8   "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon"  xterm   off secure
to something more like:
ttyv8 "/usr/local/bin/kdm" xterm on secure
which should start kde at boot.

Note, the exact syntax of these escapes me, try:
where kdm
man kdm
Also note, if you've installed user accounts with uids below
1000, I believe kde will not allow you to log in until you've
edited the kdm config file, which I cannot recall where that
lives.  man kdm should answer that.
