I'm pretty new to NetBSD, and thus I've never configured X before.
so far I've added a non-root user and gave that user the subgroup wheel.
It's a full install on a Dell Inspiron 1300 laptop, the whole drive was given to NetBSD.
All of the X documentation I've read through made configuring X sound really simple but none of the things they're telling me to do work.
when I type in (either as root or anyone) "XF86Config" "XF86Setup" "X" "twm" or "startx" the first two tell me " not found" and all of the other look like they're trying to do something, but the whole screen goes black like something is about to open..and then it just stops, which I'm guessing is due to the fact it's not configured and I have no idea how to configure it. If I don't know how to configure it and the instructions are telling me to do things that don't work....what should I do? should I reinstall X packages, if so, how?
I'm dead in the water until i can find out why nothing is working like it's supposed to, any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
