I have 16 installed but don't know the path I need to start it

don't know if it goes in ~/.xsession or ~/.xinitrc

also how do I upgrade to 17?

any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

[nuBSDuser]

can someone tell me which file I need to use please

[nuBSDuser]

I know this is an easy answer but I have searched everywhere and can't find one

[nuBSDuser]

# echo "/usr/X11R6/bin/startenlightenment" > ~/.xinitrc

I tried this and after tring to startx failed misirably

The pkg-plist file for that port says it's /usr/local/bin/starte16, so 'exec starte16' should do it. Ports always install under /usr/local, keep that in mind.

Thank you I couldn't find this anywhere

When in doubt where a port installs its files, just cd to the port directory and look in pkg-plist (which assumes /usr/local as a prefix). For Enlightenment:

cd /usr/ports/x11-wm/enlightenment
less pkg-plist

bin/e16
bin/edox
bin/eesh
bin/epp
bin/starte16

etc.
