I've been using RedHat Linux on my alpha 164LX machine and wanted to play
with FreeBSD for the alpha.  I installed 4.1-RELEASE via ftp and all seems
well except that when I switch to X Window, none of the window managers
seem to behave correctly.  Specifically, dialog boxes appear, but I can't
see any of the dialogs or buttons.  Xterm works, but none of the widgets
look right and the docked apps are just black squares.  Anyone have an
idea what I have done wrong?  Sorry if this is not an appropriate
question for this list.  If it's not appropriate here, please let me know
where would be better.  I figured the freebsd-questions list seemed to be
intel-centric.

Thanks in advance,

Rob
