I'm having alot of trouble even with the book that came with programs. I'm using freebsd 4.0 and the book that came with it is called the Complete FreeBSD. When I try to execute the commands in the book i get errors. I installed by booting from a floppy then using the stand/sysinstall command I go to the graphical interface. I then proceed...I configured and got rid of the conflicts...then I continue with the installation of the distributions and configuring the mouse and monitor. Everything seems to be ok...I have screen saver but I cant use startx and view the os with graphics. I keep getting an error that reads....... execve failed for /usr/X11R6/bin/X (errno 2) _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2 _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2 --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!?
