Is there a web-site or enything with tutorials > explaining how to do all this.. 1) Install xorg. If you chose an x installation, such as x-user, then you can skip this step. To see what's already installed, use pkg_info. The command to install xorg is probably pkg_add -r xorg. 2) Configure xorg. Command is Xorg -configure (note the capital X, very important). You'll then have to copy the configuration to the correct location, /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Details in the handbook. 3) Install a window manager. Here's the command to install xfce4: pkg_add -r xfce4. 4) Start the window manager. In the case of xfce4, the command is startxfce4. 5) Install a web browser and such.
