XFree86 3.2 X-Priority: Normal Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk K, the problem is I want to install this, but when I go into the packages section (/stand/sysinstall) it shows Xfree86-3.2 , well then when I click to add it, I am told the files can not be found (Im useing ftp.freeBSD.com by the way) , so hmm, I go into ftp.freebsd.com and for sure, that makes sense, Xfree86 isn't in the packages dir, its in its own dir /pub/freebsd/packages/XF8632 = nope /pub/freebsd/XF8632 = ya there she is. but how do I tell sysinstall where to find Xfree86 ? I have the files on my DOS partition, but thats even worse, some reason it doesn't work, some read/write error, I have them in /FreeBSD/XF8632/ should they be in /pub/FreeBSD/XF8632/ even though the read me says the prior is correct ? Please help me , I could use any feed back ya got... Chris Lee UNBC Computer Science
