FreeBSD-CURRENT is for people who are helping to develop FreeBSD itself. In order to use -CURRENT, you need to be able to build software without using packages. Because -CURRENT is in development, pre-built packages are not available (they would break very quickly as the system changes). Remember that X is just another set of packages. You can build and install X from ports: $ cd /usr/ports/x11-servers/xorg-server $ make $ make install Is there a particular reason you wanted to run FreeBSD-CURRENT? It sounds like you might be happier using the latest -STABLE release, which is FreeBSD 7.2. Cheers, Tim KientzleReceived on Sat May 09 2009 - 00:28:23 UTC
