Is there any help for me? Yes. However, we'll probably need to know more to help you. When you can't run startx, how are you trying to run it, and what sort of error do you get when you try to run it? You may try specifying the entire path, e.g. /usr/X11R6/bin/startx and see if that helps. bryan k ogawa http://www.primenet.com/~bkogawa/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
