Ahmmm... You're not related to doug White, are you ??? heheh just kiding.

Karen: You're lucky ! it took you only one week to get X running ? I took
something about 1,5 year to put things to work ok with FBSD ! hehehe

I mean it. My first free version was 2.0.5, which wouldn't recognize my
CD-ROM installed on the 2nd IDE controller and so on... It was hard, but
here we are, making history :)

Welcome to the group, and talking about newbies, whenever someone say
something you just can't get, help us: say something like "Too tech stuff !
I need more reality here, guys/gals !!!" ok ?
