***excellent Chris, many thanks.

smart-arse rtfm types ! :)
***im sure a lot of us new-to-linuxers ask this
very same question, so maybe stick this in
the faq somehow. bfn.

***hi all, rookie fiddler calling :)
just loaded fbsd5.3amd64 but it stopped at the login prompt.
(1) $startkde didnt work, is that the right command please ?
type this:
echo exec startkde .xinitrc
(2) what command to start gnome ?
type this:
echo exec gnome-session .xinitrc
(3) how to tell it to start one of the GUI automatically ?
The contense of .xinitrc should now look like this:
exec startkde
exec gnome-session
Comment out one of the line with # in front of it. So, if you want to
start KDE:
exec startkde
#exec gnome-session
Then, when you type:startx
KDE starts. Do the opposite if you want gnome
