I have the following in my /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://kde.debian.net potato main crypto optional
deb ftp://kde.debian.net/pub/kde potato main crypto optional
deb http://kde.rap.ucar.edu potato main crypto optional

After adding those lines, I did an "apt-get update" then you can install
kde packages with "apt-get install <packagename>".

It looks like there are quite a few kde-related packages.  You might want
to do something like "apt-cache search kde" or something similar.

Hope that helps!
Matt
