The X Window System This section is yet to be written. Briefly, to get X running you will need to - Install the X window system [from sysinstall or ports?] - Configure it for your monitor and mouse [brief warning about damage] - Install and configure the window manager of your choice There are many ways to start X. One is to type 'startx' at the commandline. If it doesn't work, check [that X is installed and in your path] Your window manager will give you a method of getting out of X, but in case at some stage you can't find it, remember the magic keys Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. Further information is available at [URLs]. If you have problems that can't be solved after looking there, send mail to FreeBSD-questions For browsing HTML documents without using X, lynx [is available from...] -- Regards, -*Sue*- find / -name "*.conf" |more To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
