Its a guess but did you pay attention to the notes that would have been 
printed after the installation was done ? A number of them might have 
required you to do something, like dbus (which KDE requires).


Titan ~ > port notes dbus
dbus has the following notes:
 
############################################################################
   # Startup items were not installed for dbus
   # Some programs which depend on dbus might not function properly.
   # To load dbus manually, run
   #
   # launchctl load -w 
/opt/local/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.freedesktop.dbus-system.plist
   # launchctl load -w 
/opt/local/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
 
############################################################################


If you neglected to follow these, KDE might well not work.
