kdm server is used by KDE so if kde is not installed then first step is to install it (login as a root):

Code:

pkg_add -r kde

Then It will take some time to install KDE; it will fetch latest version from internet

Then open your .xinitrc file in your home directory

Quote:

cd
vi .xinitrc

And append or edit as follows

Code:

exec startkde

Now, whenever the X Window System is started with startx, KDE will be the default desktop i.e. kdm

have a fun
