Hi!
I have been searching and trying to build a FreeBSD with KDE desktop
but I have not luck. The X starts but only the xdm.
Is there some nice step by step guide for it? Don't tell me for
handbook since I have tried to do it without success.
Regards,
Open /etc/ttys with your favourite editor and search for this line:
ttyv8 "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon" xterm off secure
Change this into:
ttyv8 "/usr/X11R6/bin/kdm" xterm on secure
And voila, KDM will start at boot.
Best regards,

OK. KDE is starting on boot but it won't let me to log in as root nor
I can't su after I have logged in as normal user.
And another thing: I have configure X with "xorgcfg -textmode" and I
have specified my card, monitor, resolution. Hence, after the log into
my account I have 640*480 only resolution. I have tried to change in
preferences>peripheral>display but I have only one choose 640*480.
What am I missing here?
1) Don't log into KDE as root. It's just not done. Create a normal user
who is in the wheel group, which solves your su problem.
2) X -configure is the way to automatically configure your X server.
Google for the Modes and DefaultDepth options in xorg.conf.
3) The FreeBSD handbook does an excellent job describing this :-)
Cheers,
Jorn
