Yes, Stacey, that worked for me, too.=20 For the record, neither portupgrade or portmanager did the trick. What worked was editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf to comment out the line in Section "Module" that says 'Load "dri"', like so: Section "Module" ... # Load "dri" ... EndSection Thank you for your assistance, Stacey! :D -- Don Wilde Org 01737 505-844-1126 If you don't find it in the index, look very carefully through the entire catalogue. - Sears, Roebuck, and Co.

After some time spent hunting around for answers, I found a thread that suggested that Xorg-6.9 broke DRI (certainly for the graphics card on the T43). Disabling DRI in xorg.conf then enabled me to use startx successfully thereafter., Might be worth a shot for you too.
