What did I miss?
Don't know exactly, as I am quite new to FreeBSD; but I can tell you
what I did.
After the installation of X11, I created a file in my home directory
called .xinitrc in that file I have the single line exec startkde.
I log into my account, and when I want Xwindows I simply
execute /usr/X11R6/bin/startx.
Here is what my .xinitrc file looks like:
# /usr/X11R6/bin/startxfce4
# exec gnome-session
# /usr/X11R6/bin/afterstep
exec startkde
I can edit it and use another window manager if I want... I have used
all the ones listed.
Hope some of this helps.
Not really. I want X to start *without* requiring a console login and
prompt me for a login in the gui, just like my workstation does.
I can type starx or gdm after logging in as root, but that's not what I
want.
