Some ports failed upgrading though. How do I > reinstall Xorg? Can I delete it and re-install? Please don't "top post". If you don't know what that means, Google for it. What ports did not update (fail)? Did you read the UPDATING file to insure that there are no some intermediate steps that you should have taken first? Also, if using "portmanager", you would be better served using: portmanager -u -l -p It would properly update dependencies and create a log that you could view. Of course, always start with a fresh update of your ports tree. I usually start by deleting everything in the "/usr/ports/distfiles" directory. -- Jerry ✌ FreeBSD.user@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
