Hi - sorry to bother you overly burdened volunteers with my pesky problem. I only recently purchased the FreeBSD version 2.2.8 - Everything seems to be fine except X Windows. For X Windows the installation went fine. No errors. It went into graphics mode fine during installation. I've tried several graphics configurations - they all seem to work fine - until I type "X" to run X Windows. It goes into graphics mode with a big X (the mouse) on the screen - and that's the end of it! To get out of this I type Ctrl-Alt-Backspace which is where it goes back to text mode - there is a long list of system verifications showing then - they all look fine - except the last one maybe - it says "Fonts Loaded = 0" - (although at the top of the list it confirms that all fonts have been loaded - and list the names of each font and it's path. I've run mkfontdir in appropriate directory again just in case. Sorry I can't provide you with more info - I know unix to get around fairly well - but don't know X Windows. Please help if you can!
