You need to have Xwindows installed. You can do this using sysinstall. Here are some references. http://www.xfree86.org/ $ man X $ man xdm $ man startx You also need the actual interface program installed. Such a program is called a window manager. I recommend KDE for the easiest set up and most familiar interface. http://www.kde.org/ Both of these can be installed using the '/stand/sysinstall' program.
