Whether I install Gnome and Metacity or only Metacity, has made no difference. This time I installed Gnome just to be on the safe side. I have also passed the dbus hurdle. Trying to enable it has always resulted in "Command not found," but this time it was successful, but TWM is still...
And what about this answer?

Hopefully I can try configuring in the opposite order without having to re-install. But then even that would only be a minor annoyance. Whether a standard installation only uses a small number of the files on the DVD or because FreeBSD is very efficient, it...
I must say I am truly impressed with the speed that posts receive replies on this forum. The few posts I have made here have all been responded to within minutes! Helpful people offering suggestions and tips is common on computer user's fora, but the people here are also diligent.
Good job...
I have tried PCBSD. The problem is the internet connection. I configure it, what should be properly, but it does not work. IP, DNS and Gateway are all correct. The system says the connection is active, but it actually is not. It is either a difficulty with the domain entry or PCBSD does not like...
I installed FreeBSD again this afternoon. As usual, there was no difficulty enabling hald, but trying to enable dbus generates "command not found." Running
Xorg -configure
yields (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown. My hardware is detected, but the end of the...
Thanks for the terminology clarification. That information will be very useful.
I followed the order in the guide: hald, then dbus. I have a feeling that is the simple thing I was missing. Thank you very much. I shall up-date this thread with notification of success or failure after I try to...
I am impressed with the quick response!
If hald is enabled, why does it not load? What is the difference between between "enable" and "load"? Forgive me. I am used to Linux terminology.:r
Plus, when I attempt to configure, hald enables, but dbus does not. The handbook states that both...
I have tried to install FreeBSD almost ten times, but have the same result every time. I install the complete system, including Xorg, with the installation DVD. I follow the instructions in the FreeBSD Handbook.
hald enable=â€YESâ€
dbus enable=â€YESâ€
The first problem; dbus...
