Looks like you're running at a raised securelevel. If so, that would explain it; you can't open an X server in a raised securelevel (it is left as an exercise to the reader to explain why raw access to system memory and configuration registers are not considered compatible with raised security levels). _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
