Well, guess what! I'm still struggling with this thing. A few of you replied back (thank you very much, by the way) and noted that my aoutlibs weren't installed. That was correct, and unfortunately still is. I've dumped the old Xbin.tgz and downloaded a new one into the /usr/ports/distfiles directory. I'm good to go, so I decide to install now. I change to /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-aoutlibs make clean (fantastic!) make (beautiful!) make install NO_CHECKSUM=yes (damnit!) and it blows chunks! Here it is: ===> Installing for XFree86-aoutlibs-3.3.3 ===> XFree86-aoutlibs-3.3.3 depends on shared library: X11.6 - found cd /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-aoutlibs/work/lib; for l in $(ls lib*); do /usr/bin/env OBJFORMAT=aout install -c -s -o root -g wheel -m 555 $l /usr/X11R6/lib/aout; done strip: /usr/X11R6/lib/aout: Inappropriate file type or format *** Error code 70 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-aoutlibs. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-aoutlibs. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-aoutlibs. Again, I am learning quick, but I am still pretty new to the Unix/BSD world. I would appreciate any advice anyone can provide. Thank you so much! If I left out any important details, I apologize. If specific questions need to be answered or additional information is needed, request it and I will get back to you very quickly. Again, thanks.
