Please install The XFree86 distribution before attempting to configure it". I remember selecting the "All" option during installation (from FTP). The installation went fine, and I still have disk space left when I run df now. I chose to install X distribution again using the custom method, but it stopped when I boot up another BSD having the same ip, but my question is why it install the bin again when I chose to install the X-user distribution, it will cost me a lot of time. Anyway I didn't see XFree86 when I run pkg_info -a -a |more, I can't understand why it isn't there when I have chosen All option during installation. My monitor is HP (Super vga), and 72Hz in vga mode(I get this from bios setup), don't know what vga card, it's in built in the mother board, my pc is a HP Vectra VE 5/75, mouse is ps/2.
