Nathan Kinkade,
Thanks to you and Jim and Dick that also posted helpful replies. I
really appreciate it. What you have suggested worked quite well.
But I wonder, where I could I have learned this. Is there some
mysterious set of documentation that I should have read before heading
out on the road of FreeBSD? I had the same problem installing gnome for
the first time. Oh it installed all right but it took me an hour and
posting to a news group to figure out how to call the executable (it
seem you need not call startx. StartX, gnome. I would never have
guessed that. So where would I go to learn about that kind of stuff?
