- There's a fair amount of UNIX/*BSD blood flowing in OS X's innards, so
if the do-it-yourself aspect gets tiring and you don't mind spending
money on an OS, you may want to look at Macs. Interope
Xorg 6.9 is exactly the same as 7.0, just packaged all together
(6.9) rather than in separate modules (7.0). Thus I believe the
assumption that installing 7.0 would improve matters is incorrect.

-CURRENT. I'm running Xorg 6.9

Another possibility: If you have FreeBSD and OpenBSD on separate disks,
the FreeBSD bootloader must be installed on
bootloaders), use FreeBSD's own bootloader (not
fancy, but it works), or one of the other solutions mentioned in the

It isn't a package, so pkg_add(1) doesn't know what to do with it.
Try an updated version of the port.
Pardon me for asking, but was your computer connected to the Internet when
you tried to "make install" using the port?
