Hello,
im new to freebsd.
after installation I updated freebsd and then used portsnap to update and extract the lastest ports.
I then installed gnome2 using pkg_add -r gnome2
I then edited /etc/rc.conf and added gdm_enable="yes"
i rebooted as per instructions and got back to commandline like before. gdm does start at bootup thou.
I tryed startx and said the command doesnt exist. to i then installed xorg using Pkg_add -r xorg
I typed startx and xterm started. i then edited the .xintrc and then typed startx and gnome starts but crashes.
what other information do you need to help me sort this out?
i didnt want to write down everything the console outputted when gnome crashed.
thanks in advance
Lodore
