hi,

i just installed freebsd for the first time and i cant get to start x =
and a window manager like gnome. Im a newbie on this and want your help.
The handbook says in order to start x by typing startx, you have to =
install wrapper. I dont know how to install wrapper and couldn't find =
it. As an alternative it says you can start by xdm. I have configured =
the monitor,card etc thing and started xdm. It gives a login windows and =
when i enter the root login, screen disappears and comes back with the =
same login screen. As i tried by a normal account other than root , it =
did the same thing.
Soif i have to install wrapper please tell me or show me the link in =
handbook or etc. Or please help me with xdm.

thanks for all you work and help
