I couldn't find the "prog" bit anywhere... so I reinstalled XFree86 3.3.6 from the ports... and then I tried installing gtk12 and mozilla from the ports... AND IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))) thank you SOOOOO much on this one... hardly anyone touched this problem... and you resolved it! only one problem though... after I reinstalled it from the ports... well the windows manager seems to freeze on me. i type "startx" and something happens... but the windows manager never seems to refresh... I had alot of terminal boxes but they're all empty, w/o a cursor. when I ran the reinstall did I screw something up? -Sameer __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
