I installed KDE from the original 5.1-RELEASE, did a cvsup to get the
source tree and ports tree upgraded, ran "pkgdb -F" and "portupgrade -a"
and I'm now running KDE 3.1.3.

Only problem I have (minor) is an error message at boot which seems to have
no effect.  I am running kdbm instead of xdm for a graphical login, and
when kdm starts is when I get the error message.
