hi Anirban, first update your ports tree using cvsup. [cvsup -g -L 2 /etc/ports-supfile this will do it. but ports-supfile might be somewhere else if u didnt edit then move it under /etc. for this check documentation.] then cd to /usr/ports/x11/xorg # make install clean. soon u done with this step, move to the last one. select kde or gnome to install. [up to you which to prefer.] kde or gnome alsa avaliable in ports. cd to the directory u prefer. then make install clean again. edit your xorgconf [accourding to your pc configuration] and xinitrc [exec startkde]. reboot, login, startx ;) hope this will help. regards, bye ;)
