grab a jdk (devel/jdk/1.4 or 1.5).

Beware that konqueror's java support is not really good. Among other things,
the reparenting of windows does not work correctly unless you happen to
also be using kwin, the window manager of KDE...

You are in for some compile time and probably want to start reading
this article:
http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq13.html#javaflash

I don't use KDE and did not test konqueror. Note that the info on the
KDE base package says you need to explicitly enable Java.
Let us know if it works...
