For fonts, use /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d, the man file explains how to define your own sections for X to use. Freetype should be loaded by default when X configures itself. Alternatively, just copy/move all TTF and/or OTF fontfiles to their respective folders in /usr/local/share/fonts/ (wish port packagers did that by default). As far as your qeustions go... Do you have both hald and dbus running? Please provide your /etc/rc.conf Are you using ports or packages? A mix of two? (latter very ill advised). -- Serge Hooge () ascii ribbon campaign - against HTML e-mail /\ - against proprietary attachments
