    First you must make sure you have KDE installed. You might be able to get it with a simple apt-get install kde command. Once you are sure it's installed, there are several ways to get it running.

    One is to create a text file in your /home/yourUserName directory called .xinitrc that contains one line:
    Code:
    exec startkde
    Then restart X Windows with CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE.
