I have installed FreeBSD release 5.3 for AMD 64 on my PC (opteron 250 processor, 1gb RAM, Tyan 2885 motherboard), on a separate FreeBSD partition on a SCSI hard drive.
It boots up without error messages -- after logging on, at the command prompt I type startx, all that loads up of the X windows system are 4 terminal consoles, each with a command prompt. I am unable to get KDE or GNOME desktops even though I had included these in the setup process. I had previously used the 5.2 release when x-windows worked very well. My initial attempts to upgrade to 5.3 did not upgrade X-windows, so I decided to reinstall from scratch. Could anyone suggest a fix for the failure of KDE or gnome desktops to appear after startx. Many thanks.
