Should work on xfree86, but you have
xorg, I think. Try some very simple
wm, like "evilwm". It has no back-
ground at all, so you have to put
lines like:
xsetroot -solid black
xsetroot -cursor_name top_left_arrow
in your ".xinitrc". Since I don't have
xorg, must to blame syntax of xsetroot
lines.
It would be nice to have tutorial about
diffs between xorg and xfree86 somewhere
on freebsd site. And faqs.
Best regards
ZK
