I have installed Freebsd 5.3, and I am at Chapter 5.6 of the handbook, 
and really can't figure out where to go from here. 
How do I start XDM? or do I do that with 'startx'. If so I have a 
further problem, in that when I try 'startx' I get 'Fatal server error; 
no screens found' also 'X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill of 
server shutdown). xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "Quercus:0" in 
"remove" command
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am a newbie to  CLI, and the 
NIX environment.    

 
Peter
