nvidia is the closed-source driver. He was asking for the "open-source" nv, which I think has been dropped by Arch, IIRC. xf86-video-nouveau is a reversed engineered driver that should provide 2D and 3D capabilities, something nv was not able to do.

If you want KDE to start when you startx, put "startkde" in your .xinitrc.
As for the nv driver, its not a kernel driver, its an Xorg driver. It's been drop since it sucks ****. Instead try nouveau: pacman -S extra/xf86-video-nouveau
Or perhaps "pacman -S nvidia"
