sysinstall doesnot recognize kde install

2003-07-24 Thread Torben Brosten
I've cvsup'd ports

then

for /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4 did make install clean  with no errors.
Then configured XF86 using /stand/sysinstall's XFree86 tty config process.
startx shows the basic terminal windows with blue trim as aspected.
Then I followed it with

make install clean for /usr/ports/x11/kde3

'startx' and /stand/sysinstall doesn't recognize the kde3 install. 'startx'
continues to show the generic xfree86 windows environment. sysinstall asks where
 I want to get kde3 from (ftp etc.).  I'd go through the ftp download etc.
again, but can't get pass the options menu, as I haven't been able to determine
the correct  release label to use for 4-STABLE.
1. How to get sysinstall or xfree to recognize kde3 is installed?

2. What release label should I use for sysinstall's option menu, so that it can
re-download kde3?
Suggestions appreciated,

Torben

It is not the job of make install to guess what users want to use kde... it
requires a user to edit ~/.xinitrc

do a man on xinit and and don't bother with sysinstall

 Suggestions appreciated,
