Afternoon -

I can use cntl-alt-f1 to exit out of Gnome 2.26 - back into freeBSD 7.2

any way i can get back into Gnome again?
I'm receiving an xserver error...

Also - how do you take advanatge of the enlightment desktop manager?

Apparantly you can configure this by going into sysinstall - then configure/desktop - but i do not have a desktop option under configure.

any help is much appreciated.

ALT-F9 should do the trick

Then it's most likely your X has crashed by switching to the console.

That more or less depends on how you start X. If you use startx then all you need is to edit ~/.xinitrc.
