hi, Depending on your setup it might be a good idea to remove All the ports installed and check /usr/local ( i guess /usr/X11R6 is already a symlink ) for orphaned files that might get in the way of a new install. To speed up the initial install of xorg you could use binary packages and if you feel like it recompile after from ports... at least you will have X working in the meantime. -- Best Regards, Iulian Margarintescu http://www.erata.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] (spamassassin & pf & spamd all said it's OK to make it public ;-) ) Key ID: 0x03176E5CEDEFF7AB I prefer plain text email
