I am a new use of FreeBSD. I am hoping that someone can assist me. First of all, the output of uname -a: FreeBSD rcn.com 5.2-RC2 FreeBSD 5.2-RC2 #0: Mon Dec 22, 07:23:48 GMT 2003 root@wv1u@freebsd.org:usr/obj/src1/sys/Generic i386 I enter the command: startx . Everything appears to work correctly. Now, I click on Applications - Desktop Preferences - Advanced - Sawfish. After that, it makes no difference what I click on under that menu because nothing happens. Upon exiting "x" I find the following error messages. Error: can't connect to socket /tmp/.sawfish-ges/rcn.com:0.0 Error: can't connect to sawfish on display 0.0 /dev/dsp No such file or directory I have no idea what is wrong or how to correct it. I would appreciate any assistance someone might be able to afford me. Gerard Seibert gerard-seibert@rcn.com
