Thank you both so much [quotation corrected] It's a quotation from "Master and Margharet". It means (not literally, but here) that the thing that sentenced you was already done and there's little you can do about it (I guess the rest about it is OT, so you should read the book to find out more:). You might not have to reinstall FreeBSD from scratch, you could just try wiping out /usr/local, /usr/X11R6, /var/db/pkg and starting all over again (but that's rather close to reinstalling). If you will want to recollect what ports you have (so that, when reinstalling, you don't miss anything), something like $ ls /var/db/pkg>~/portsList will help (surely before you delete /var/db/pkg). > for using terms I can understand, and although it seems I cannot repair the > problem, I have learnt a valuable lesson, and picked up a couple of tips > along the way :) I definitely do intend to read a great deal more about > FreeBSD, I just have trouble finding time (work 60+ hours a week, new Dad > etc.) so I guess I will just take a little longer than some :) But I'll get > there !! > > Thanks Again > Andrew Kozak -- DoubleF You think Oedipus had a problem -- Adam was Eve's mother.
