OK I'm a by ports make install as a rule=2E But I needed to spin up a box quickly, and decided to use pkg(8)=2E xorg, and another port (package) I installed, dumped some important information after the install=2E I stripped the text from the console/terminal, and tried to paste it into a fresh file=2E But the new graphics drivers don't allow that sort of thing (graphics vs text mode)=2E So I was left with mostly gibberish=2E I need to get that information back=2E I just guessed that pkg message <port-name> might do it=2E But no joy=2E How can I retrieve that information? Thanks! --Chris
