> That -k option to make is unnecessary and possibly bad. Stop using it > for now. Well, it doesn't really sound like it is *good*, but I was just trying to get X to install again. Thanks for the warning, though. > cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg > make clean OK, it cleans everything > make config-recursive > (choose configuration for everything) Should there have been some kind of user interaction here? A series of questions? A screen with boxes to X for different options? What I got was: # make config-recursive ===> Setting user-specified options for xorg-7.4 and dependencies # It took about 5 minutes, but there was no prompt for input... > make install Same problem. The syntax is a little different from make than from portinstall, but it's the same error. XORG can't install because XORG-drivers can't install because xf86-video-via can't install. > > Anyone have another suggestion?
