I tried visiting this link from Windows, and it just says "file not found". Is this the correct syntax for the link, or am I supposed to extrapolate what it really should point to. Will FreeBSD know what to do if I input the line as is? I am a newbie, so assume I know nothing (not exactly true, but...) :) Anyway, I understand your point to be that I should have all of the files for the correct distribution of XFree86-4 in a temporary dir, then sh ./Xinstall.sh answer the questions, and off we go! -------- End of forwarded message -------- ***************************** Joshua Lokken [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.omicnet.com Ph: 503 223-1497 Fax: 503 223-9436 ***************************** _______________________________________________ Newbie mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
