Sorry to bother you, but I have a real doozie of a problem here. You see, FreeBSD seems to think that NONE of the files that should be executable (such as /usr/X11R6/X, which DOES exist BTW), are actually executable. I know what your thinking, oh, he didn't install correctly, well, the thing is, I have checked and rechecked twice. EVERY file is EXACTLY where it should be. They all are the correct size. In fact so far I have re-installed twice (once using sysinstall, the other manually.) I have plenty of space, no errors (exept the X: command not found, xstart : command not found, etc. etc. etc. In fact, as near as I can tell, there isn't a single file thats executable anywhere in my X11R6 directory. So far I have read both the handbook, the FAQ, and the X-Windows readme three times through. I can find no reference to this problem. I am using the Generic Kernel v2.1.5.
