I recently installed FreeBSD 2.2.8 on my PC from the CD-Rom collection; therefore I also installed a few packages that should appear in the /usr/ports directory. However, while it appears that the packages were installed, when I go to the /usr directory, the ports directory does not appear to be there, so I can't configure things like Mesa or Kde. Also, when I run /stand/sysinstall, the packages appear marked with an X, meaning that the packages were in fact installed, but are nowhere to be found in the /usr directory. Can you help me out with this problem? Thanks. Sincerly, Lionel Echeverrķa ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
