There are no kde-3.5.1 packages available. AFAIK.
Maybe on the 6.1-BETA1-i386-disc2.iso ?

Hi there everybody
I am a novice user, and I just did a FreeBSD-6.0 MINIMAL install
I did all the basic stuff, like cvsup'ed my ports and
standard-supfile, so I'm synced to 6.1-PRERELEASE, and I applied my
kernel patches, rebuilt world, and even compiled Xorg from scratch
along with some basic window managers until kde3 was going to be
ready.. But I've encountered a problem :(
Well, not bad for a novice!
You've gotten good advice from others on this particular issue but I feel
compelled to add two cents. As a novice, you might certainly find it less
troublesome/exasperating to track a less volatile security release branch
(e.g. RELENG_6_0) instead of -STABLE (RELENG_6), and to install your ports
applications from packages rather than compiling these yourself from source.
The differences in these approaches to system and ports management are pretty
well described in the Handbook as well as the archives of this list.
However, if you're trying to be on the bleeding edge on purpose because you
want the experience (including the occasional headaches) gained from
compiling things from scratch, then more power to you, of course. For most
purposes though, installing ports from packages is just fine.
