I believe its X -configure I've been reading through the complete freebsd in my "reading room" but admittadly it takes me a couple of stabs to get it right on a new system. > > > > > > [betom@ayiin] [Mon Sep 18 12:17:46 2006] > > /usr/home/betom > > $ locate xorgcfg > > /usr/X11R6/bin/xorgcfg > > /usr/X11R6/man/man1/xorgcfg.1.gz > > > > [betom@ayiin] [Mon Sep 18 12:17:50 2006] > > /usr/home/betom > > $ locate xorgconfig > > /usr/X11R6/bin/xorgconfig > > /usr/X11R6/man/man1/xorgconfig.1.gz > > > > If that's not what you need...let us know :) > > > I'm still looking for xdm; possibly startx too. > I'm making the > wm switch from ctwm to gone-lite ... but first, > the basics > have to be there. > > gary > > > -- > Gary Kline kline@thought.org > www.thought.org Public service Unix > the only way I know to populate /usr/X11R6/bin is by cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg && make && make install && make clean this will install the clients, libraries, documents, fonts, and basic X11R6 system. it will also clean up after itself. Keep in mind NOT ALL X11 apps will be installed in that directory. a good number of the clients end up in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin depending on if it uses qmake, gmake, make, imake different things can happen, and not much can be done about it. some of those makes just ignore the PREFIX directive. -brian
