>Description:


Chapter 2.9.12 of the Handbook covers configuring an X server from sysinstall.  It doesn't have instructions in reguards to FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE or X.org.  Chapter 5 is a much better resource for those attempting to configure X


>How-To-Repeat:


Read handbook section 2.9.12 and compare to section 5

State-Changed-Why:  
I fixed this problem in revision 1.303 of the file, I added notes about 
the removal of X server and X desktop configuration facilities from 
sysinstall(8) and pointed the reader to the X11 chapter. 
Thanks for the submission.
