Hi again, Unfortunately, it has been a month since i ordered FreeBSD 2.2.2 and have always to reinstall over the net (4-6 hrs each time). This time, after doing the Xwindows setup (graphically), if i type startx, I get no command found. If I go into /usr/X11R6/bin and type X i get the grey screen but no windows. I copied xinitrc for .../xinit/xinitrc and copied to /home/beef/.xinitrc and did chown to myself. But that did not help. I am at a loss as what the problem is. I have an ATI mach 64 with 4 megs ram and basically did same setup as before. I tried it as root and myself. All fails and gives some type of message about SHVSYM or something like that. Can someone please try to help?? Thanks in advance, Lanny Baron
