Not sure if this is the correct place to ask since im quite new to this world so please correct me if this is the wrong place to ask. When I start X I dont have any icons or text. I dont know how this can be fixed but im quite sure X has been configured good. I hate this problem and ive been dealing it for a while now. The error I get is: pid could not get read. I tried several other window managers including twm gnome and kde. None worked, so I came to the conclusion that it isn't a windowmager-specific problem. I searched on usenet and found that I needed to replace ~/.xinitrc with /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc and edit it which had abosuletely no succes. I think it has todo with libraries and so the libjpeg libraries are not correcly linked. Can somebody clear my clouds please, im totally out of ideas atm. TIA. Forgot to add that I use a Riva TNT2 and that this doc didnt worked: http://www.freebsdzine.org/attic/199907/tnt.txt anybody have tips I really appreciate it. The links on that doc (the fetch ones) don't work while the doc isn't that old. I only found Linux binaries and no FreeBSD binaries. -- Sent through GMX FreeMail - http://www.gmx.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
