well the big question at this point is: "is it insstalled?".  if it is, then 
make sure your /etc/rc.conf is edited to call for your preferred login 
manager (either xdm, gdm or kdm) and run the following as root:

  # /etc/init.d/xdm start

note that if you just want to start with the gui at boot time, run the 
following command as root:

  # rc-update add xdm default

however, if kde and or gnome aren't installed, you're looking at a lot of 
complie time, but all you have to do is this:

  # emerge kde

  or

  # emerge gnome

hope that helps
have fun ;-)
