Did you rehash (hash -r, whatever) after installing XFree86? 2. I downloaded the necessary files directly from xfree86.org (they have FreeBSD-configured tgzs). If you try that route, be sure to get at least all *required* tgzs, put them in an empty directory, go 'sh Xinstall.sh' and off you go. Then rehash, and type 'xf86cfg'. NOTE: this worked for _me_, which doesn't necessarily mean it'll work for you... -- Martin Karlsson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
