Thank you again for your reply. But may I ask how I can get the default window manager back. I think it's called xterm or xdm, I'm not sure.

The link you referenced is for loading Gnome or KDE. The last time I followed the instructions for loading KDE like this it ran for almost 72 hours. And that was on a P4 1.9 Ghz with a blazing fast high speed connection I was using in NYC. It would download 640 MB in only 3 minutes, but the KDE pkg_add was still running after 2 days of non-stop compiling and I eventually had to give it up.

I just want to get my little xterm windows back like I had before the Xorg upgrade. Again, thanks for your replies.
