I have no Highpoint card but I'll bet that you want /usr/ports/misc/compat5x port installed to find the real versions of the libraries that you faked up with your links. libncurses.so.5 is clearly listed in the packing list for that port. And don't forget to read the pkg-message which tells you about the kernel option you need to do this. hth, --Alex
