When I try to use xdm, the login screen come up fine, but after enetering the login and password, the screen goes blank for a moment then comes back to the login screen. I an also having trouble installing ports for X. When doing make, it stops with an error that it can't find the file xpm.h. I tried to install the graphic/xpm port and the same error occurred. Did I miss something i the initial FreeBSD installation? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
