What port/package did you install exactly? -- Jonathan
AFAIK, the best way to install X Windows is via /stand/sysinstall.

start x windows 
and this is what I get, when I type startx I get:

xauth:creating new authority file /home/b/.xauthority
xauth:(argv):1: bad display name ":0" in "add" command

Fatal server error
cannot open log file "/var/log/xfree86.0.log"

xinit:no such file or directory(errno2): unable to
connect to xserver

P.S.  I carefully installed Xwindows but is this

didn't?
