from work i log me remote by ssh into my machine at home in, and then i type "startx".
how can i start by this way kde/xorg-server so that they will not be killed if i close my ssh seassion.
later at home i will use kde/xorg-server.

This might be what you are looking for :

This might also be a problem of systemd (if you're using it) default of killing all processes when one logs out of all seats.
Adding KillUserProcesses=no to /etc/systemd/logind.conf will get rid of this behavior.

The suggestion from cyrillic looks fine to me (and tmux is an alternate to GNU screen that should also work). Please explain why using one of those two does not satisfy your requirement.

You can try disowning the process after backgrounding it with command & ; but using screen or tmux is the better method.

Something like nomachine nx or x2go might be worth looking at.
