I indeed run Firefox using the above method from my servers (which aren't running X) but X is still installed. It *should* be able to work in theory (I use xdialog from ports on machines that don't have X installed; only xdialog and xauth). *** warning *** will uninstall X11 software *** warning *** pkg_delete -x xorg Maybe Firefox will still run (communicating with the X server running on the local side of your ssh client), or maybe it will balk incessantly about something. I do know however, that you'll need xauth installed regardless. -- Devin _____________ The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidential.
