Are you sure it *isn't* working? For a few releases now, X's extremely irritating default behavior is to give you an all-black screen with a black cursor and do nothing else. So if you just start X without also starting, say, an xterm, success and failure are indistinguishable. -Nathan On 04/13/14 04:30, Tilman Keskinöz wrote: > Hi guys, > > I updated my Mac Mini to FreeBSD 10-STABLE.
