Hi,
   I want to install the latest version of XFree86-4.

I've already tried going via the ports an hour ago, which failed with lots of 
syntax errors. I do not want to bother with the port, and would like to install 
via a package.

However, pkg_add -r XFree86-4 fails with "File not available" whilst attempting 
to fetch the package from some FreeBSD mirror.

How do I tell pkg_add to try somewhere else?

Stacey
