Its a "clean install" in other words. You don't install libXrender on your own, you install XFree86-4-libraries which provides it. That's why it talks about conflicts when you try to install the separate port. If Xft can't find your Xrender, then you've probably broken something with your XFree86-4-libraries install and should reinstall it. -- Eric Anholt eta@lclark.edu http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/ anholt@FreeBSD.org
