From: Sandra Kachelmann on 19 May 2010 09:56 Hi Since the xorg update my xfce4 desktop has become unusable. I always get the error message below. I even setup FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE from scratch, updated to 8.0-STABLE, installed xorg and xfce4 with default settings: $ portinstall --batch /usr/ports/x11/xorg /usr/ports/x11-wm/xfce4 Then I moved my homedir away to avoid any cruft in .config or wherever. Setup .ininitrc .session $ cat .xinitrc if [ -f ~/.xsession ]; then . ~/.xsession fi $ cat .xsession cd xset b off /usr/local/bin/numlockx exec sh /usr/local/etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc So now everything should be completely vanilla: skachelmann(a)valhalla:~ $ startx xauth: creating new authority file /home/skachelmann/.serverauth.7426 X.Org X Server 1.7.5 Release Date: 2010-02-16 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE amd64 Current Operating System: FreeBSD valhalla.local 8.0-STABLE FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE #0: Fri May 7 20:43:11 CEST 2010 root(a)valhalla.local:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 Build Date: 19 May 2010 12:50:03AM Current version of pixman: 0.16.6 Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.

I finally ended up moving xfce4-session out of the way. -- Richard Kuhns <rjk(a)wintek.com> My Desk: 765-269-8541 Wintek Corporation Internet Support: 765-269-8503 427 N 6th Street STE C Consulting: 765-269-8504 Lafayette, IN 47901-2211 Accounting: 765-269-8502 _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports(a)freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe(a)freebsd.org"

What's that? You could try adding --enable-checks=no to CONFIGURE_ARGS in /usr/ports/devel/dbus/Makefile and reinstalling dbus. This option disables all the safety checks which are being triggered. Might help. -- Gary Jennejohn _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports(a)freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe(a)freebsd.org"

What's that? portinstall is part of ports-mgmt/portupgrade THE ports management tool way back in time when portmaster wasn't around :-) > You could try adding --enable-checks=no to CONFIGURE_ARGS in > /usr/ports/devel/dbus/Makefile and reinstalling dbus.

I wonder if the upcomming xfce 4.6.2 release is going to fix this.
