Starting it fro the console works fine. alt <appropriate F key> startx If your terminals are not made, read the MAKEDEV file for the appropriate ./MAKEDEV command because it varies with different versions of FBSD. Then edit /etc/ttys (pretty much self explanatory) and do: kill -HUP 1 (or else reboot) And you should be good to go. ML Duke Post Script: Thought I sent this long ago.
