In addition to my previous mail, here are some more settings to look at closely: 1. Please make the following entry in /etc/rc.conf hald_enable="YES" dbus_enable="YES" 2. Please make the following entry in $HOME/.xinitrc exec your-wm where your-wm can be twm dwm startkde /usr/local/bin/startxfce4 3. Please make the following entry in $HOME/.Xdefaults XTerm*background: #000000 XTerm*foreground: #FFFFFF XTerm*font: -*-andale mono-*-*-monospaced-*-17-*-*-*-*-0-*-* XTerm*highlightSelection: true !XTerm*jumpScroll: true XTerm*saveLines: 9999 XTerm*geometry: 64x40 Hope this helps. thanks Saifi.
