problem starting kde4

I have installed KDE in FreeBSD 10. When ever i type service start kde4 I get the error
Code:
localhost kdm:0[1069]: Recieved unknown or unexpected command -2 from greeter
Code:
localhost kdm:0[]1069 Abnormal termination of greater for display:0,code 1, signal0
I have also problems starting x.
Code:
Failed to load module "fbdev" (module does not exist.0)
 
This is likely unrelated to KDE and the last diagnostic tells your graphics card is not supported or you forgot to install/setup the corresponding driver - since intel, mga and AFAIK also ati drivers are automagically configured, i guess you have an nvidia card?. If so, install and load the x11/nvidia-driver, then execute X -configure and copy the created xorg.conf to /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf
