| tryin to install x
| 1.  cd /usr/ports/x11/Xfree86-4
| 2.  make all install clean
| 3. Xfree86 -configure
| 4. test worked fine..so i exited
| 5. modified the XF86Config.new file with vertical and horizontal refresh rate
| 6. i need to install the wrapper class  although i'm not sure how to do it...from 
|x11/wrapper i tried make and then make install but that does not work. i checked all 
|the files with the vi editor to see if they contained any install info i found 
|nothing of use
| when i use make it says something about forbidden ports.
| any suggestions
| thanks for the help!!!!

As root,

echo "XFREE86_VERSION=        4" >> /etc/make.conf

then try installing the wrapper again.

Then you create a file called $HOME/.xserverrc which contains

#!/bin/sh
 if [ -x /usr/X11R6/bin/Xwrapper ] ; then
         exec /usr/X11R6/bin/Xwrapper -auth $HOME/.Xauthority ${Xdepth}
 else
         exec X -auth $HOME/.Xauthority ${Xdepth}
 fi
