Hi everybody , This is Dhanesh , I m a newbe to FreeBsd , I had a intel p4 box with FreeBSD-6.1 Os with Gnome 2.18. installed and , this desktop working fine for last 2 months . Mean while I tried to install OpenOffice from ports collection for this box , but it is asking for an upgrade of Xorg libraries , so I followed the /usr/ports/UPDATING procedure line by line ,, every thing went fine at the stage where I reached # portupgrade -aP ( while runnig this command about an hour or more ) ther HAPPENED a power failure , after this the m/c restarted and the Desktop environment lost for ever , Its asking for command login without Desktop GUI login , ther is an error message its showing gdm_server_spawn : Xserver not found : /usr/X11R6/bin/X : 0 -audit /var/gdm/: 0.Xauth -nolisten tcp vt9 Failed to start X server several times in a short time period , disabling display:0 I tried to continue the portupgrade -aP command again but its showing errors , Stale dependency : at-spi-1.18.1_1 ----> xmlcatmgr-2.2 -- manually run 'pkgdb -F' to fix , or specify -0 to force asking pkgdb -F to run # pkgdb -F I executed but its showing some Duplicated origin : multimedia/gstreamer -gstreamer-0.10.12 gstreamer80-0.8.12_2 Unregister any of them ?[no] I enter no for 3/4 times for some duplicate origins Then it asking for Stale dependency at-spi-1.18.1_1 -->xmlcatmgr-2.2 (textproc/xmlcatmgr) : ........................ ............................ Install stale dependency ?[yes] y but its failed showing that stop in /usr/ports/textproc/xmlcatmgr (I tried to to deinstall and make reinstall textproc/xmlcatmgr many times it also failed all the times ) Here I requesting anyone of you to help me to 1 provide the method to retrive the Desktop environment ? OR 2 Other wise how I can remove all the the things related to xserver (so that I have to install the Gnome 2.18 again as I did was portinstall /usr/ports/x11/gnome2 ) thanks in advance Dhanesh _________________________________________________________________ Spice up your IM conversations.
