I'm considered new in UNIX administration stuff. My questio is how do I actually run X-windows, I seemed to be stuck in CLI mode. I did went through the X thing (whatever). As far as I know, in Solaris UNIX Operating System, I can run the X-windows by detecting this command. /usr/openwin/bin/openwin. So, how do I do that in FreeBSD UNIX. Now, I now Solaris is another variant of UNIX. At least, I know the administration in UNIX OS. Installing NT seems to be so much of problematic.
