    <title>Starting KDE4</title>

    <para>After <application>Kde-workspace</application> has finished, the first 
    important milestone has been reached. Now you can start <application>KDE4</application>.
    Modify your <filename>.xinitrc</filename>:</para>
    
    <screen><userinput>cat > ~/.xinitrc &lt;&lt;EOF
# Begin .xinitrc file
#setxkbmap -layout de -model pc105 -variant nodeadkeys
setxkbmap -layout de -model pc105
#
## Start TWM
#xterm  -g 80x40+0+0   &amp;
#xclock -g 100x100-0+0 &amp;
#twm

# Start KDE
exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session startkde
#startkde
EOF</userinput></screen>

    <para>Tweak this file to match your needs, especially setting the keyboard layout
    if you do not have a <filename>/etc/X11/xorg.conf</filename>. If you are using <application>
    ConsoleKit</application>, add <userinput>ck-launch-session</userinput> before dbus-launch.
    Every subsequent package can be built while having <application>KDE4</application> up and 
    running, but remember to keep <envar>&kde4-dir;</envar> and <envar>$QT4DIR</envar> set.</para>
