Re: problem with startx..!
Ok, thanks! Finaly figured it out. It was missing .xsession and I create it. Anyway Thank you very much for your help.

Almost certainly because you didn't set it up to do so. Please read the documentation.

Can't login to the system...!
Hi all, I am a noobie here. I was in the system as root and I type this command: chsh -s usr/local/bin/bash (without reason,by mistake) when I reboot the system I give username password and I see this: login: usr/local/bin/bash: No such file or directory FreeBSD/i386 (leonidas.MSHOME) (ttyv0) login: But I can access the system as another user, and when I type *su* I can login as root fine.

(because I formated /tmp immagine) I wouldn't like to loose my database, and I have no idea What I have to do? Thanx! :D You've apparently got a copy of mysql still running, despite trashing everything in /tmp. You can confirm that by: % sockstat | grep mysql Now, if sockstat shows that mysql is listening on a network interface, then you may just be able to log into it over a network connection and shut it down cleanly. If not, then you have no alternative by to signal the process to death and then let it repair the datafiles as it restarts. * If you have to kill mysql by signalling it: At first, try: # kill -15 `ps -ax | grep mysqld | cut -d ' ' -f 2` If it doesn't work immediately, leave mysql for 5 minutes, and see if it has shut down yet. Try again if not, possibly several times. Failing that, use: # kill -9 `ps -ax | grep mysqld | cut -d ' ' -f 2` But this last really should be avoided, as it causes the process to crash without any opportunity to close itself down nicely. * If mysql is listening on a network interface -- preferably any of 127.0.0.1:3306, [::1]:3306 or *:3306 Try using mysqladmin to shut it down cleanly. Note that mysql does special shortcut things when hostname is localhost and tries to use the socket in /tmp/mysql.sock -- which doesn't help you at all. You can force it to make a *network* connection to localhost by: # mysqladmin -h localhost -P 3306 --protocol=TCP -u root -p shutdown This will prompt you for the mysql root password. If mysqladmin doesn't work, then try using kill as above. Your data *should* survive MySQL being forcibly restarted in either of these ways. MySQL takes very great pains to ensure data is written to persistent media (ie. disk) in order to provide proper ACID compliance. However, if mysql does get killed, it will need to do some repair work on data structures when it next starts up, and that can take a while. Because writing out its PID file is one of the last things mysql does in the startup sequence '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server status' will report 'not running' during this repair work, so be a bit patient if you see that.
