Fred,
From man startx(1):
SEE ALSO
xinit(1), X(7), Xserver(1), Xorg(1), xorg.conf(5)
Try:
# whereis X
If X is installed, it should return:
# X: /usr/local/bin/X
pkg_which if X is installed should return:
# pkg_which /usr/local/bin/X
xorg-server-1.7.5,1
If it doesn't, then the full X server isn't installed:
Try:
# whereis xorg
xorg: /usr/ports/x11/xorg
If xorg isn't installed, cd to:
/usr/ports/x11/xorg
and
make config-recursive (If you add any options, run make
config-recursive a second time after the shell prompt returns)
and then
make install clean

Hi Oliver and Tim,
I installed xinit but startx still doesn't exist. whereis returns
nothing and man startx returns nothing.

On my system (with X, obviously, already installed):
beta# whereis startx
startx: /usr/local/bin/startx /usr/local/man/man1/startx.1.gz
beta# pkg_which /usr/local/bin/startx
xinit-1.2.0
beta# whereis xinit
xinit: /usr/local/bin/xinit /usr/local/man/man1/xinit.1.gz
/usr/ports/x11/xinit
I' m not certain about the p5/Perl TK questions, but in the file:
/usr/ports/x11-toolkits/p5-Tk/pkg-descr
there is this description:
This a re-port of a perl interface to Tk8.4 (John Ousterhout's production
release).
Perl API is essentially the same as Tk800.025 but has not
been verified as compliant.
It also includes all the C code parts of Tix8.1.4 from SourceForge.
The perl code corresponding to Tix's Tcl code is not fully implemented.
This version (Tk804.025) is only likely to work with perl5.8+.

Hello,
Where would I find startx? I assume it is part one of the ports under
X11
but I don't want to install all of them to find it.
Also, is p5-Tk the same as Perl/Tk?
Best regards,
Fred
