The error has occurred with a few recently; the latest was compiz yesterday. I was going from 0.6.2_2 to 0.7.8_1--sorry, I did not save the exact output of the error. The new compiz ran okay until I logged out my x-session and then tried to log back in. X froze before getting to the black screen and I had to restart the system. I deinstalled compiz and startx ran normally again. I am wondering if those directories/files which could not be completely removed might be the cause of the freeze? > I assume 'by hands' means that you are > not using a port tool to manage updating a specific port. Is that > correct? Yes, I meant to say that I cd into the given /usr/ports/ directory and run make from there. Thanks for your help. Richard
