2.2 starting x windows and kDe

The X Window System provides a way to execute programs (including a graphical environment
such as KDE) in a general way when startx is executed. This is in the form of two files (.xserverrc
and .xinitrc). Normally these reside in your home directory and are used for starting server and
client related applications respectively. The startkde script in the kde/bin directory executes all
the programs required by KDE in one handy script. You can therefore start KDE along with your
X server by adding a line to execute startkde to the .xinitrc file in your home directory.

Example below shows samples for the relevant files.
$ cat ~/.xserverrc
exec X -screen 0 1024x768x16 -engine 4 -ac -nowinkill -noreset -emulate3buttons
