    I installed X-Free86 - 4.2.0_1,1 from my Free BSD Cd using sysinstall and
    cannot get it to run. I see the directory X11R6 under /usr, I run
    'xf86config' and it says 'command not found'. I typed 'XFree86 -configure'
    and it also says 'command not found'. I've looked for a file called
    /etc/X11/XFree86Config and it says 'No such file or directory'.

    I went back through sysinstall and reinstalled the X11 packages including
    XFree86-4.2.0 and still I get the above results.

    Could someone please explain what I am doing wrong, this is becoming
    frustrating.

    Thanks.
