Hi,

I see you've found your way to the newbies list. :-)

You don't have to download any KDE packages. You can point $PKG_PATH to
your closest packages mirror and then just do `sudo pkg_add -i [package]`.

Read this first:

And then:
http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html

As in: first learn to configure X, then learn how to add packages (like
kde).

Hope this helps you on your way somewhat... Nico
