I suggest checking for the obvious and simple things first, using simple tests. Also always have a look at possible error files, such in case of xdm - ~/.xsession-errors: Does it contain anything suspicious? Check the documentation here: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/x11.html Both xdm and the use of window managers and desktop environments are covered. Also note that your user should be member of the "video" group. # pw groupmod video -m || pw groupmod wheel -m The fact that you can already see the xdm login screen confirms that X is working, so the first step is covered. ;-) For further assistance, it would be nice if you could state which version of FreeBSD and which version of X you are using and what (related) packages you have installed, as well as the content of relevant configuration files (most important, your user's ~/.xsession), plus anything that pops up in error message logs (especially related to xdm, your user's ~/.xsession-errors). Diagnostics only work good when you can state what you have, what you did, and what result you got. :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
