The XF86Setup utility uses the tcl/tk libraries. Reinstall tcl/tk first. Perhaps the building of XF86Setup should be an option in the configure script? That or the script should check if the objformat of the libtk found is the same as the objformat XFree is being compiled to and print a warning if not. -Ben > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-stable@freebsd.org > [mailto:owner-freebsd-stable@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Emmanuel Gravel > Sent: Monday, February 22, 1999 2:17 AM > To: jmz@freebsd.org; freebsd-stable@freebsd.org > Subject: Installing XFree86 3.3.3.1 on FreeBSD 3.1 > > > I've recently upgraded from 2.2.7 to 3.1 stable and upgraded my ports > collection.
