Installing x-window-system-core is a better idea as it pulls in all of X explictly save for xdm and some small other things.# apt-get install xerver-xfree86
gnome-desktop-environment is slightly smaller, removes some optional stuff (gnome-office, rhythmbox) and might be worth considering.# apt-get install gnome
But apt-get install kde is the right answer anyway ;) Adam
