Gentoo - startx

By default, gentoo is set to text mode. If I want to use like KDE graphic desktop environment, I have to change .xinitrc in my home directory.

Modify .xinitrc:
    echo "exec startkde" > ~/.xinitrc
Start XWindow:
    startx
Configure KDE: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/kde-config.xml

Good thing is that you can update package easily. Just use command:
emerge package-name
