Dear Sir: I meet a problem with FreeBSD 4.2-Release. Originally I used it well. The X windows system worked well with KDE, GNOME. But after I installed XFree86-4 I cannot start X window again. The procedure are following: First I install XFree86-4: #pkg_add XFree86-4.0.1_8.tgz After it finished I got following message: ****************************************** To improve security, the X server is installed without a SUID bit. This is suitable for use with xdm, but not with a startx script. If you need to use a startx script, install the x11/wrapper package. ****************************************** Then I did: #pkg_add wrapper-1.0_1.tgz After it finished I returned to the shell. From here I cannot start X window again!!! #startx I got the forllowing message as in file XFree86.0.log. ========================================== XFree86.0.log ========================================== XFree86 Version 4.0.1 / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6400) Release Date: 1 July 2000 If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting problems. (see http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ) Operating System: FreeBSD 4.2-BETA i386 [ELF] Module Loader present (==) Log file: "/var/log/XFree86.0.log", Time: Sat Aug 25 20:31:32 2001 (==) Using config file: "/etc/XF86Config" Data incomplete in file /etc/XF86Config Device section "Primary Card" must have a Driver line. (EE) Problem parsing the config file (EE) Error from xf86HandleConfigFile() Fatal server error: no screens found When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send the full server output, not just the last messages. This can be found in the log file "/var/log/XFree86.0.log". ============================================================== So could you please help me to solve my problem? And I am not very familar with the more detailed jargon of FreeBSD. Regards. Thanks.
