I used pkg_add -r xorg and it installed but gdm will not run > from the gnome2 port it looked for /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm, I see the fix > xorg-libraries.diff but i don't know what to do with it, do i put it > in certian folder then install from ports? the first thing to try might be "ln -s /usr/local /usr/X11R6", this helps find things that used to be in /usr/X11R6 which went to /usr/local. anything ending in ".diff" is supposed to be used by "patch", but i don't know what you mean by "xorg-libraries.diff". it won't be of any use to put it in some folder, because it contains instructions on how to change a certain file mentioned in its header. regards, clemens
