I'm trying to move from Debian Linux to FreeBSD. xorg runs and displays =
the crossed grey and black, like it's supposed to. I've even seen an =
XFCE desktop. But once this comes up (both of them), there's no way, =
short of rebooting, to quit xorg or to get back to the console. I've =
tried several times to install XFCE with 10.2.

I'm thinking the problem may have to do with dbus.

I booted this morning, and it works perfectly (as far as I can tell) to =
the console. But when I type:

service dbus start

the error message says it couldn't get the UID and GID for 'messagebus'. =
So I said

pkg install dbus

Everything updated it self properly, and it said that the latest version =
of dbus was already installed.

Where does user messagebus come from? Am I wrong about what the problem =
is? Any thought and/or instructions would be greatly appreciated.
