Well, you're missing the FreeBSD documentation, which is a lot better
than a random Google result.
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x11.html
right, I should have followed that first..
Or you might want to try PCBSD (www.pcbsd.org) which will require a lot
less understanding of what is going on (at the cost, as usual, of giving
you a lot less choice, at least initially).
no,no, I've used UNIX in the past, but it has been linux for the last 10
years.. just a little rusty..
The exec startkde is supposed to go in your .xinitrc file, in which
case you would start X with the startx command.
right, I understand the .xinitrc, but I wanted it to work first..
I do have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf, I did do the X -configure.
Usually unnecessary, and not a great idea unless it is necessary.
ok, I'll check out the freebsd pages, and I'll let you know. thanks!
