Hi Rich, Welcome to FreeBSD! The FreeBSD handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ Is a fantastic source of information on how to use FreeBSD. In particular, there is a section which covers xdm (the graphical login screen): http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-xdm.html And another section on "Desktop Environments" (basically Gnome and KDE): http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x11-wm.html In the KDE section, there are instructions for installing KDE, and for enabling it so that KDE starts when you login. Hope this helps, -Andy Reitz. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
