I followed the normal procedures, boot the installation floppies and configured everything. In the installation screen, I was able to use XF86Setup to configure the X, started X server test and save the configuration file. However, when I boot the installed system and tried to startx, I got message "xf86OpenConsole: KDENABIO failed (operation not permitted). Even worse, when I tried to reconfigure X using XF86Setup or inside /stand/sysinstall, the configuration program just cannot start the X server anymore. I would be grateful if anyone can help on the issue. Thanks Alan Tsang To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
