I do not have the output because I am using knoppix. That is because of the problem I am having in FreeBSD.
>Description:
When I boot FreeBSD, I get a unix command line after I log in. I type the command "startx" to start the graphical mode. I get errors, and it will not start. I can not send /usr/log/Xorg.0.log because javascript does not work in links web browser. I can not send email or do normal tasks because links is limited. I get errors about default pointer, core device, missing files or directories, fbdev module did not load(not found), and some others. I also could not send the bug report from FreeBSD because I can not view the Jpeg image showing the confirmation code, and I can also not send emails. Please help. Thank you.
>How-To-Repeat:
I can repeat the problem by entering the command "startx".
