By default FreeBSD takes the minimalistic approach of not installing possibly unneeded dependencies, so this is why there is no X server and window manager by default. To install some, you should read the FreeBSD handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/) and particularly the Chapters 4 and 5. Or you could always install PC-BSD, which is based on FreeBSD and which installs and configure X and a window manager by default. -- %-- *Sudhakar K* --% http://www.featuriz.com If you think, you can. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
