Dear Sir:
 
I meet a problem with FreeBSD=20 4.2-Release.
 
Originally I used it well. The X = windows system=20
worked well with KDE, GNOME. But after I installed
XFree86-4 I = cannot=20 start X window again. The procedure
are following:
 
First I install XFree86-4:
#pkg_add = XFree86-4.0.1_8.tgz
 
After it finished I got following = message:=20
******************************************
To improve security, = the X=20 server is installed without
a SUID bit. This is suitable for use = with xdm,=20 but not
with a startx script. If you need to use a startx script,=20
install the x11/wrapper=20 package.
******************************************
 
Then I did:
#pkg_add = wrapper-1.0_1.tgz=20
 
After it finished I returned to the=20 shell.
 
From here I cannot start X window = again!!!=20
#startx
 
I got the forllowing message as in file = XFree86.0.log.
