I have FreeBSD 4.2 installed with XFree86 3.xxx installed.
I used the ports collections and "made" XFree86 4.xxx.
I have not done a "make install" yet because I have a few
questions first.

1)  How do I configure XFree86 4.xxx??  I used xf86config
to configure XFree86 3.xxx

2)  If I do a "make install" I would assume that I will
have both version 3.xxx and 4.xxx installed.  When I do
a "startx" how does FreeBSD determine which one to use??
If version 4.xxx fails I would need to go back to version 3.xxx

BTW... Nice job on the port.  After the two source files were
down loaded, the "compiles" took a couple of hours on my system.
I was pleasantly supprise that there were no errors or problems.
