See the FreeBSD Handbook section titled The X Window System for details, but you can probably type xinit (to start X) and then type poedit in a terminal window that will (probably) be started for you. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
