Hello, a funny thing I mention: My FreeBSD-Box (first 4.9, now 5.2.1) boots up to = the login-prompt. Then, after typing =B4startx=B4 (default=3Dwaimea) nothin= g is going on, the HD=B4s LED is blinking and then the machine is sleeping = until I press strg+c. If I want to start xfce4 by typing =B4startxfce4=B4, = all is done, but the net-services in xfce4 are sleeping aswell. No, the wonder in my story, if I start Mandrake-Linux first, reboot the box= and start FreeBSD again, all things are wonderful and I can login to X (wa= imea) and do my daily work. This is not the way I want to go in nearest future, I want to check out the= failure and workaround it. Google had no informations for me, so I have to= ask here. Thanks and regards, Thorsten
