Hello everyone!
I have tried as a personal challenge to get freebsd with dekstop up and running with a c64 emulator. I had another thread where I got my network card to work, and now I hope that you guys could help me with XFCE. When I type Startx I get the error "Xserver already running on display0".
Ive heard that this error is perfectly normal when running startxfce4 from inside X (such as when started from a .xinitrc file). But thats what the handbook told me to do... I also dont understand what they mean "inside x" as Im still in textmode.

And I dont understand the answer in the above thread either. "So start X with just a simple terminal ( xinit /usr/local/bin/xterm) and then, from inside the xterm that starts, run startxfce4. See if you get any errors other than the ones listed above." That sentance I dont really understand.
my xinitrc is just one line that now says "exec blabla startxfce4 " which I added from the handbook :https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x11-wm.html
I would be grateful for any answers.
