i'm a newbie and i just installed freebsd 4.8. the basic installation seemed to have gone fairly well, i can use the console mode fine enough. the problem is when i try to load a window manager, KDE, Afterstep, Windowmaker (the ones i've tried thus far) i get a blank screen when i use the startx command. when i try just typing afterstep or kcontrol at the command prompt i get a "cannot open display" msg. any thoughts or suggestions? send reply to casp_semper@yahoo.com thanks much
