You can probably fix this by using pkg_delete to remove the jpeg library port and the afterstep port. Then re-download the .tar files from ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports. Tar xvf them, cd , and then make install. Typing "ls /var/db/pkg" will give you a list of the names of ports and packages in your system. Basically, your system can't use the shared library which manages jpegs. AfterStep requires this to display jpeg-based icons. The procedure that I recommended will uninstall whatever version of the jpeg library that you have and afterstep, then reinstall them both.
