After installing KDE4 on a fresh install of FreeBSD 9 RC1, I'm presented
with these messages on the console[notice X path]:

Oct 26 18:17:59 laptop kdm-bin[1864]: X server "/usr/bin/X" cannot be
executed
Oct 26 18:17:59 laptop kdm-bin[1629]: X server for display :0 cannot be
started, session disabled
Oct 26 18:17:59 laptop kdm-bin[1599]: Cannot lock pid file /var/run/kdm.pid,
another xdm is running (pid 1629)

This is my rc.conf

wlans_ipw0="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP"
zfs_enable="YES"
sshd_enable="YES"
moused_enable="YES"
moused_flags="-3"
hald_enable="YES"
dbus_enable="YES"
local_startup="${local_startup} /usr/local/kde4/etc/rc.d"
kdm4_enable="YES"
linux_enable="YES"

When started with startx, I get the KDE4 desktop so that seems to be working
fine at least that far.
