There's a problem in the RC script for kdm4, as part of KDE SC 4.6.1.
At least on FreeBSD 8.1.

The following line fails as pgrep on 8.1 doesn't support -q:

    while ! pgrep -fq "^/usr/libexec/getty " > /dev/null 2>&1; do

Removing the q from the line makes everything work correctly on 8.1.

Took me awhile to figure out why "sudo service kdm4 start" just filled
the process list with entries, without ever launching the binary.  :)
