The 4 cmd Desktop Environment example:

Start w/ a clean FreeBSD Vbox guest w/ a user added who is also in the
wheel group:

Add to the following to the indicated files:

## /etc/fstab
proc                    /proc           procfs  rw              0       0
## /etc/rc.conf
kdm4_enable="YES"
dbus_enable="YES"
hald_enable="YES"
vboxguest_enable="YES"
vboxservice_enable="YES"
## /etc/sysctl.conf
kern.ipc.shmall=32768
kern.ipc.shmmni=1024
kern.ipc.shmseg=1024

# pkg install -y xorg x11/kde4 virtualbox-ose-additions && shutdown -r now

Login as the non-root user.

A bare metal install can omit the vbox sections and even this minimal
example includes more than is needed.
