In the last episode (Jun 30), Chris Stankevitz said: > My rc.conf file has this entry: gnome_enable="YES" > > Q: Where on my hard drive can I find the instructions executed to "enable" GNOME? > > A: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/gnome [bad answer: file does not exist] > > Thank you, Try: grep "name=.*gnome" /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* Most rc scripts are named the same as their rc.subr enable_* variables, but they don't have to be. If no rc.d scripts have "name=gnome" in them, then your gnome_enable line doesn't do a thing. Maybe you had installed a port at some point in the past that required it, but the port has been uninstalled since then? -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
