Robert, Which install option did you choose? Was it the "X-User" option, or did you do another? Or did you install like I did and install the minimum, then go back and install X, and forget to configure it? Thank you, Ronnie Clark A+, MCSE, CCSA, CCSE -----Original Message----- From: Jamie Wright [mailto:yhiannah@itlnet.net] Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2001 4:57 PM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: help!!! To whom it may concern, I cant get X to install. I installed FreeBSD and rebooted, logged in, and typed "startx" and it couldn't find it. Perhaps this was due to a message I received during installation that said "Xfree86 3.xxx could not be installed" and the only option was the "abort" option. I have a voodoo banshee card, and I dont think its the graphics card. I had 6 gigs to work with. do i just start over and try to install ALL of the ports? the install only used the first CD. I just bought the FreeBSD powerpak 4.2 from amazon.com because I hate Linux. I just want to use a UNIX-type OS. What do I do???????? Help, please!!!!!!!
