I'm planning to install KDE 2.1.1 in the next day or so and want to upgrade to XFree86-4.0.3 first. Since I'm new to FreeBSD, can you please tell me whether I'm going about this the right way? 1. Remove XFree86-3.36_7 by going to /usr/ports/x11/XFree86 and doing a "make uninstall". Will this remove every trace of the older package? Will it leave the configuration files for my system? 2. Do a "make install clean" in /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4. Is this all that's necessary to install the new version? What is the command for invoking the graphical xfree86config utility? Or is it necessary to do this again once I've configured the older version? Thanks!
