installing X in FreeBSD 7.2 RELEASE

2009-09-05 Thread st ellis
i've been using freebsd for about 12 years. my latest working version is 6.2, 
which works aok. 
this week i tried 7.2, but i cannot find the command to set up X. in 6.2, it 
was xorgcfg which worked beautifully. can anyone email me the correct command, 
or procedure?
thanks.

If you are in -RELEASE, then it is simple.

# pkg_add -v -r xorg

After that, still you can install GNOME by pkg_add(1).

# pkg_add -v -r gnome2-lite

You are probably looking for:

   X -configure

to set up Xorg.  To test the configuration:

   X -config /root/xorg.conf.new
