If it is the ports you should find both XFree86 and Xorg in the ports tree. (x11/XFree86-4 and x11/xorg respectively) If it is the packages you are looking for I think you are out of luck. Since Xorg is the default X variant on FreeBSD 5.3 all packages using X are linked against and depend on the Xorg libraries. I believe XFree86 is not even built as a package. If you wish to use XFree86 you will have to compile it yourself via the ports system, which should work fine - just remember to set X_WINDOW_SYSTEM=xfree86-4 in /etc/make.conf if you do this. -- Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se
