Lucky you :)

I'm running the nVidia drivers (using WITH_FREEBSD_AGP, else it appears to
panic on startup, or possibly just freeze dead -- i can't see 'through'
the splash screen to tell) and Qt-3.1.1_4/KDE-3.1, and KDE appears to work
reasonably OK.  Unfortunately running kdm causes 'kde_greet' to start
allocating as much RAM as it possibly can, as fast as it can...

And unfortunately, I have no idea how to fix it...  And the thought of 
recompiling Qt/KDE _again_ just to see if disabling OPENGL in qt fixes
the problem doesn't fill me with joy...

Bah.
